Rajasthan Royals
Gujarat Titans
Gujarat Titans have done a far better job in the competition thus far. They have played eight contests and have won six of them. They are in the top position in the points table. On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals have had a torrid time in the tournament, with a 2-7 record in nine games.
Rajasthan Royals go into this contest having lost five contests in a row, while the Gujarat side has won its last couple of games. Gujarat has the best net run rate in the league at the moment. The Gujarat top-order batting has been in devastating form lately, and it will be difficult for the Rajasthan bowlers to dislodge them.

Neither team should face any injury challenges ahead of the game
The Sawai Mansingh Stadium will favor the batters all the way. There will even be an even bounce available for the batters to play through the line. Although this venue has large boundaries, the outfield will be quick and there will be full value for the batters for their strokes. There is no possibility of getting a rainfall during the contest.
Jos Buttler and Dhruv Jurel are the two standout options from this category. In fact, you can even consider having Buttler as the captain.
You have to start with the top order players like Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill, and Yashasvi Jaiswal. You can take a punt on Vaibhav Suryavnashi, although, he seems to be unlikely to make a sustained impact at this stage of his career.
Riyan Parag and Wanindu Hasaranga are the two main options here. We don't think Sundar or Shahrukh Khan are the kinds of players that will make a big impact.
There are so many great options here that you can go a bit bowler heavy. Jofra Archer, Prasiddh Krishna, Sai Kishore, and Mohammad Siraj are all excellent choices.
Sai Sudharsan has been remarkably consistent in IPL 2025. He has 827 points to his name and that is an incredible amount at this stage of the tournament already. Picking him as captain is a safe choice.
Jos Buttler has played some very good cricket but has not really hit top gear. We hope that the motivation of playing against his former franchise may bring out the best in him.
Contrary to the Rajasthan Royals' fortunes, the Gujarat Titans have had a great run in the IPL this year. They have won four out of their last five games, while Rajasthan has lost all their previous five games. Even though Rajasthan is playing at home, they are unlikely to trouble the in-form Gujarat team in this contest. They have the players in their ranks, but stopping Gujarat will take a minor miracle.
B Sai Sudarshan leads the fantasy points tally with 637 points, Jos Buttler with 572 points, and Yashasvi Jaiswal with 572 points.
The Gujarat top-order batter Sai Sudarshan leads the top run-getter list with 417 runs, while Jos Buttler follows suit with 356 runs. Yashasvi Jaiswal has also scored 356 runs.
Prasidh Krishna has picked up 16 wickets so far in eight contests and will lead the bowling charts, followed by Sai Kishore with 12 wickets from eight games. The third bowler on the list is Mohammad Siraj, who also has 12 wickets from eight contests.
Yashasvi Jaiswal has hit a maximum of 20 sixes in nine games for Rajasthan, followed by Riyan Parag with 16 sixes and Sai Sudarshan with 15 sixes.
Rashid Khan has a strike rate of 220, followed by Rahul Tewatia, who has 205, and Sharukh Khan, who has 187.18.
: Prasidh Krishna has not only picked wickets but also bowled economically, with an economy rate of 7.29. He is followed by Riyan Parag, with an economy rate of 7.89, and Sai Kishore, with 8.22.
