IPL 2022: Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans, Game 24 – Match Prediction

The inaugural champions Rajasthan Royals will go head to head against Gujarat Titans in the 24th match of the ongoing Indian Premier League at the Dr. DY Sports Academy, Mumbai on Thursday.

RR has made an impressive start as they have won three out of their four matches.

On the other hand, Gujarat Titans suffered their first loss of the season against Sunrisers Hyderabad. The Titans have also won three out of their four matches and have got off to a good start.

Meanwhile, Rajasthan Royals are ticking the right boxes as a unit as they are coming up with a collective effort. Shimron Hetmyer had played a fine knock in the previous match whereas Trent Boult and Yuzvendra Chahal are doing a fine job with the ball for the Sanju Samson-led team. RR has a potent bowling line-up, which is coming up with fine performances. Kuldeep Sen had also impressed on his debut in the last game against Delhi Capitals.

On the other hand, Gujarat Titans would be a bit disappointed with their batting performance as they could only manage 162 runs against the Orange Army. The Hardik Pandya-led team will want more from David Miller and Matthew Wade as both of these left-handers are yet to fire at all cylinders.

Hardik Pandya also looked a bit frustrated as a captain in the previous match and he would want to keep his emotions in check as a leader.

Match Prediction: Rajasthan Royals will enter the contest as favorites as they have a more balanced team.

Rajasthan Royals Probable Playing XI: Jos Buttler, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson (c & wk), Devdutt Padikkal, Shimron Hetmyer, Riyan Parag, Ravichandran Ashwin, Kuldeep Sen, Yuzvendra Chahal, Trent Boult, Prasidh Krishna.

Gujarat Titans Probable Playing XI: Shubman Gill, Matthew Wade (wk), Sai Sudharsan, Hardik Pandya, Abhinav Manohar, David Miller, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Mohammad Shami, Lockie Ferguson, Varun Aaron.
