Rajasthan Royals are still in a do-or-die situation as they need to win all their remaining games to be in the run for the play-offs and Jos Buttler remains a vital cog for the team.
On Monday, Rajasthan secured a comfortable seven-wicket win against CSK and kept their chances afloat of making it to the playoffs.
