Check out the IPL prediction for the RR vs GT match.
The 2022 IPL champs have been at their best this season. The team has been clinical in all facets of the game and have been dominating the points tally with relative ease. Their batting has been revolving around the top 3, i.e., Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill, and Jos Buttler. The trio has been scoring runs in almost every game this season to ensure their team finishes with good totals.
Talking about their bowling unit, pacer Prasidh Krishna has been leading the charts of the most wickets for the team so far. Krishna has 17 scalps to his name from just 8 matches and has been a vital cog for the side, particularly in the middle overs. Besides Krishna, Mohammed Siraj and Ravi Sai Kishore have bowled with precision, especially the left-arm spinner, who has 13 scalps to his name so far from 8 games. With things going their way, the Gujarat Titans will surely start as the favorites in this game.
Rajasthan Royals are probably going through their worst IPL season in recent times. The 2008 champions have been bamboozled in every facet of the game and have no room for error now. With only 5 games left for them in the league stage, RR can’t afford another loss.
Their batting with Sanju Samson has struggled. However, the youngster Vaibhav Suryavanshi has induced a spark at the top order along with senior pro Yashasvi Jaiswal, who has peaked at the right time. However, the stand-in skipper Riyan Parag has been an utter disappointment in the middle order. The right-hander is yet to score a fifty this season and has been under the scanner. Nitish Rana has been delivering well with the bat with two fifties this season, but has been inconsistent, and Dhruv Jurel, too, has had the same story.
On the bowling front, Jofra Archer and Sandeep Sharma have shown some spark, but all other bowlers have been lacking runs and have been ineffective in almost every game. Tushar Deshpande has been leaking runs game after game, and the team management is yet to show him the exit door, especially when they do have bowlers warming the bench. The Royals need to regroup and come up with a better plan to pose some sort of a challenge against the upbeat Gujarat Titans unit. Let’s go deep into this post to gain more information on cricket tips.
