After losing to Mumbai Indians, Rajasthan Royals (RR) are at the number four position in the IPL 2023 points table, having won 5 out of the nine games played. They now face the Gujarat Titans (GT) at their home ground, the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur. Gujarat Titans are coming off a huge defeat against the Delhi Capitals as the David Warner-led side snatched a brilliant victory. But as cricket is a funny game, Delhi bounced back strongly in that low-scoring affair managing to defend the small total of 130 runs against a better-looked batting side of GT.

GT would have sat comfortably with 14 points but the loss against DC would have hurt their momentum and they would be looking to reach the playoffs early with a win over RR. RR too haven’t had a bad outing as they have previously posting more than 200 runs consecutively against CSK and MI respectively. However, it was a batting demolition from the Mumbai side, during the 1000th IPL game, that took the game away from the Royals while also recording the highest successful run-chase at Wankhede.

The last outing between the IPL 2022 finalists saw RR walking out victorious after chasing the target of 177 with four balls to spare, thanks to Sanju Samson and Shimron Hetmyer’s match-winning half-centuries.

True That !!

Gurkirat Singh Gill@gurkiratsgill

A game where absolutely nothing worked for RR. The Zampa over to Hardik summed up the performance. Zampa is a good bowler and Hardik has been out trying to hit leg spinners when the line has been wider, but Zampa kept doing the same without any variation.

GT have played like defending champions 😍

Has any team beaten Gujarat Titans comprehensively this season?🤨 I only remember last-over finishes. This speaks a lot about the complete unit they developed under Hardik Pandya. A lot of credit to Nehra Ji and Gary Kirsten.
