Rajasthan Royals captain Shane Watson has said that he might have to move himself up the team's batting order as his side's struggles continue in the Indian Premier League.
Watson made only seven runs on Wednesday while batting at number four as the Royals lost to the Chennai Super Kings by seven runs, which is their second loss in three games.
According to the Sydney Morning Herald, the Royals won the toss and Watson sent the Super Kings in to bat first, with skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni's side making 6-140 from their 20 overs.
The Australian Test opener's IPL side were reportedly bowled out for 133 by the Super Kings.
The Royals are currently placed at the fifth position in the eight-team tournament and go up against the Royal Challengers Bangalore on Saturday, the report added.
