Gujarat Titans vs Rajasthan Royals Match Prediction: Who Will Win The Match Between GT vs RR? IPL 2022, Final, GT vs RR. Gujarat Titans will meet Rajasthan Royals on 29th May 2022 at 8 pm at Narendra Modi Stadium, Motera, Ahmedabad in the IPL 2022 final. 73 IPL 2022 competitive games are done and dusted before the mega final of the ongoing Indian Premier League 2022. It has been a successful season where intense competition in most games has been the norm.
There aren’t any surprises for the finals either as the Top 2 sides would be fighting for the crowning jewel. The Gujarat Titans had booked a berth in this auspicious final by defeating the Rajasthan Royals in the 1st Qualifier. The Rajasthan Royals knocked the Royal Challengers Bangalore out of the tournament in the Eliminator to enter the final for the second time after the successful IPL 2008 – the inaugural edition.
The Gujarat Titans had won both the games played between the two teams this season which would add to the side’s confidence. They have done well as a team and relied on collective performances rather than individual brilliance. Rajasthan Royals have had their best season since 2008 this year. Both sides are batting powerhouses, and this is expected to make this contest interesting.
Hardik Pandya’s side Gujarat Titans has scripted a dream story in its debut season. They topped the points table and registered a convincing 7-wicket win in the 1st Qualifier against the Rajasthan Royals. They will take on the same team in the final. Hardik Pandya would be aware of the pressure on his team. He can’t let the guard down having come this far with a young group of players. The Gujarat Titans’ skipper would like to end the tournament much like the way they have played in a majority of the games.
Openers Wriddhiman Saha and Shubman Gill have done well as a pair and the onus would be on them to deliver a good start. The middle-order looks formidable with Hardik Pandya and Matthew Wade being among the runs in the last few games. The trio of David Miller, Rahul Tewatia, and Rashid Khan have been the side’s greatest strength as they have been winning games with electrifying knocks down the order. The side would like to see them be at their best in the most important game of the season.
Pacer Mohammad Shami has dropped slightly in form, but he will have to lead this attack and get Orange Cap holder Jos Buttler out early in the game. Yash Dayal has to offer good support with the new ball as Rajasthan has firepower at the top. Spinner Rashid Khan would be expected to work his magic being the best bowler for the side. Hardik Pandya, Alzarri Joseph, and Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore have important roles to play in the supporting act.
Sanju Samson’s side has made a grand entry into the final of the tournament. Their 7-wicket win against the Royal Challengers was a convincing one. They bowled well to restrict the Royal Challengers Bangalore to a small total and chased down the score clinically towards the end. As they play the IPL 2022 final for the first time since 2008, the former champions would look for their second title win. They have lost to the Gujarat Titans in both the games this season and Sanju Samson would be looking to win the one game that matters the most.
Rajasthan opener Orange Cap holder Jos Buttler hit his 4th ton of the season in the last game and makes a very formidable opening pair with Yashasvi Jaiswal. A special knock from him would be on the side’s mind. In the middle order, they have good firepower with Sanju Samson looking in great form and he shall need to add runs with Devdutt Padikkal and Shimron Hetmyer. The side is happy to have Riyan Parag and Ravichandran Ashwin down the order as both these players have won it for the team in earlier games.
Trent Boult and Prasidh Krishna hit form in the last game, and they will have to be at their best as the Gujarat Titans are a powerful batting side. Obed McCoy’s good spell in the last game would add to the side’s confidence as he has been struggling in the past. Purple Cap holder spinner Yuzvendra Chahal will have to produce a special spell with Ravichandran Ashwin as he has been the highest wicket-taker in the tournament and must make the best use of his confidence.
Gujarat Titans vs Rajasthan Royals Match Prediction: Who Will Win The Match Between GT vs RR? IPL 2022, Final, GT vs RR
A cracker of a contest is expected in this game with both sides looking in terrific form. The Rajasthan Royals would look for a special knock from Orange Cap holder Jos Buttler who has held the side on his shoulders. Their bowlers will have to show the same kind of form as they did in the last game against RCB.
The Gujarat Titans are on the doorstep of history and may become one of the first sides to win the tournament in its debut season. They have a well-balanced team and have played as a unit. This would put them slightly ahead of the Rajasthan Royals in this game.
