Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Gujarat Titans (GT) have officially revealed the list of impact players that they have nominated for the 47th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025.
Riyan Parag-led Rajasthan Royals (RR) are hosting the Shubman Gill-led Gujarat Titans (GT) on Monday, April 28, at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur.
GT and RR have had complete opposition campaigns to each other in IPL 2025. With 6 wins in 8 matches, Gujarat Titans are very close to booking their spot in the playoffs, and Rajasthan Royals, on the other hand, are on the verge of elimination with 2 wins in 9 matches.

Rajasthan Royals need to take some inspiration from Royal Challengers Bengaluru's last season and win all their remaining games to give themselves a chance to qualify for the playoffs.
However, the chances for that look quite slim as they are yet to find a settled combination, and most of the RR players have looked in poor form.
They would be heavily dependent on Yashasvi Jaiswal, who is 37 away from 2000 IPL runs, and Jofra Archer to come up with a magical performance against the Gujarat Titans, as a defeat would mean curtains for them in the IPL 2025.
Talking about Gujarat Titans, they have got one of the most complete bowling units of IPL 2025, that too with the leg-spinner Rashid Khan showing only flashes of his best.
Prasidh Krishna has looked in the form of his life, Mohammed Siraj has looked dominant in the powerplay, while Sai Kishore has emerged as the best spinner in the league.
On the batting side of things, GT's top three - Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, and Jos Buttler - are averaging 53.9, the highest this season. The heavy lifting by the top-order has led to the middle-order of GT being untested, but they have got highly talented players who can get the job done.
Meanwhile, the Gujarat Titans dominate the Rajasthan Royals in the head-to-head record with a win-loss record of 6-1, and they also won both their matches in Jaipur.

Speaking at the toss, Rajasthan Royals skipper Riyan Parag said that the pitch on offer is quite good and has low bounce. He said:
"We'll bowl first. Pretty similar wicket to the one we played against LSG."
Meanwhile, the Gujarat Titans (GT) captain, Shubman Gill, said that the surface looks good, but they also wanted to bowl first. He stated:
"Would've bowled first as well. But it looks like a good wicket."
