On-ground work underway for Rajasthan Royals’ two home matches in Guwahati

With under three weeks to go for the Rajasthan Royals’ homecoming to Guwahati where they host Punjab Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders on 15th and 19th May respectively, the franchise’s management team has been leading operational work at the ACA Stadium in the city to welcome back passionate cricket enthusiasts to watch their favourite players in action.

The team, which is currently on top of the IPL 2024 points table with eight wins and 16 points from their opening nine matches, is scheduled to arrive in the city on 13th May 2024 after playing three more away matches in Hyderabad (2nd May), Delhi (7th May) and Chennai (12th May). To get the iconic ACA Stadium in its prime condition, Rajasthan Royals’ Chief Executive Officer, Jake Lush McCrum, along with members of the Royals’ management team, have been outlining and executing various preparatory elements.

Commenting on the team’s return to the NorthEast, speaking from Guwahati, Lush McCrum said, “We are incredibly excited to be coming back to Guwahati to play two more home matches, and are focused on how we can provide our passionate supporters in the NorthEast region with the best possible matchday viewing experience. The ACA Stadium is one of the best in the country, and we are together working to create the atmosphere that our players loved playing in last season (in Guwahati).”

Lush McCrum added, “There was so much positivity around our matches last year, we can’t wait to give thousands of fans the opportunity to watch the team in action. We are delighted to have extensive support from the Assam Cricket Association who have made significant improvements in the stadium infrastructure by upgrading the hospitality area, renovating media facilities, and also launching the special residential project.”

Being extensively involved in the day-to-day planning and monitoring of the preparations, the Royals CEO also elaborated on the initiatives the franchise has planned to make the IPL experience more accessible than ever for the fans. He said, “We have a host of initiatives planned within Guwahati, in Assam and the entire NorthEast region to create a real buzz about the Royals coming back to their home. We are activating local malls, educational institutions, restaurants and more to provide an insight into what to expect when we take the field on 15th and 19th May at the ACA Stadium. We are also going to be running competitions for fans which provides them the opportunity to earn themselves money-can’t-buy experiences.”

Among the activities planned by the franchise, the City Center Mall is currently home to a Rajasthan Royals fan zone, wherein fans will have the opportunity to feel closer to their favourite team through selfie zone, Augmented Reality-led zone, etc. The fan zone is open for the fans to visit and experience from 2 to 10pm every day.
