As part of the association, on the eve of the festival, a friendly cricket match will be played between teams comprising reputed authors, Rajasthan Royals management and some of the local players. The ‘Authors XI’ versus ‘Royals Management XI’ match will be held in Jaipur, home to the Royals, on January 23 between 2 pm and 5 pm.
In addition to this, Rajasthan Royals captain Rahul Dravid is part of a session titled ‘Corner of a Distant Playing Field’ and will be in conversation with CNN-IBN’s Rajdeep Sardesai, unravelling the dharma of the game. This session will be conducted at 3.30 pm on Saturday, January 26.
Raghu Iyer, CEO, Rajasthan Royals said, “As a team that epitomises the elegance, royalty and rich heritage of Rajasthan, we are proud and excited to be associated with the DSC Jaipur Literature festival.
