Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans, RR Playing 11 vs GT (Predicted), IPL 2022, Match 24, RR vs GT. Rajasthan Royals will play against Gujarat Titans in Match 24, Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy, Navi Mumbai, Apr 14, 2022. The match begins at 19:30 IST (14:00 GMT).
Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals will come face to face in a potentially explosive IPL 2022 match on Thursday (April 14). These teams will have clear intentions coming into the match too. The Gujarat Titans tasted their first defeat of the IPL 2022 at the hands of SunRisers Hyderabad and they are stuck at 6 points.
In theory, Royal Challengers Bangalore (6 points) can go ahead of them and Punjab Kings (4 points) can catch up with Gujarat Titans if those two teams won their next matches. Gujarat Titans under Hardik Pandya would like to avoid that situation and a win over Rajasthan Royals can give them that cushion back.
Similarly, Rajasthan Royals also have 6 points and will be wary of RCB taking the top spot with 8 points if they win or PBKS catching them with 6 points, depending on the result. So, the RR under Sanju Samson too will be eager for that two points of comfort.
