Match Preview

In the second leg match, Rajasthan Royals will host Gujarat Titans in Match 48 at the Sawi Mansingh Indoor Stadium, Jaipur in the Indian Premier League 2023.

Rajasthan Royals have played 9 games, won 5 games and lost 4 games. They are currently in 4^th place in the points table

Gujarat Titans have played 9 games, won 6 games and lost 3 games. They are currently at the top of the points table

In the first leg match, Rajasthan Royals were on the winning side and won their match by three wickets.

Rajasthan Royals lost their last match against Mumbai Indians even after posting a score in excess of 200. This also proves the point that the big totals can be chased and no team even a strong bowling team like Rajasthan Royals can feel safe while defending.

After being at the top of the table, with their 4 losses, Rajasthan Royals have fallen to 4^th position as Chennai Superkings and Lucknow Super Giants shared points due to their match getting abandoned due to weather. While it helped CSK and LSG, it kept the Royals in the 4^th position for now.

The two teams have played each other times with 3-1 result in favor of the Gujarat Titans.

The Defending champions Gujarat Giants have been one of the most consistent sides in the tournament but their last defeat against Delhi Capitals, would have put a big dent in the Gujarat Giants confidence. Gujarat Giants who boast a formidable batting line-up was unable to chase a modest total of 131 runs against Delhi Capitals.

This was just their second loss in their IPL history while chasing a target. This has to be an aberration of sort for an in-form Gujarat Titans and they should quickly forget the last game.

The positive in the match was the return of batting form of Hardik Pandya who looked to be coming back in form.

Shubhman Gill is their go to batsman at the top and Gujarat Titans will expect a strong start from the star opener.  Sai Sudharshan’s exclusion from the playing eleven is a surprise as he did well with the limited opportunity he got.

Rashid Khan had 2 bad back-to-back bad games and his form is crucial for the Titans.
