GT vs RR: Match Details

• Date – Tuesday, May 24, 2022
• Time – 7:30 PM IST
• Venue – Eden Gardens, Kolkata

GT vs RR Match Preview: 

Shubman Gill and Hardik Pandya are the two key batters for Gujarat in this game. While Gill knows how to play long innings, Hardik knows how to keep the scoring rate up. These two are the best bets for the Titans against the spin duo of Rajasthan Royals. 

Mohammad Shami will be tough play with the new ball and has the potential to wreck the top order. Rashid Khan will be a constant threat. Watch out for R Sai Kishore, who can be a great matchup against the RR batting lineup. 

Rajasthan batters are in great form this season. Everyone has contributed. While Jos Buttler is the key batter, Yashasvi Jaiswal could prove to be an impact player. If GT plays a four pacer attack, Sanju Samson will be a key factor in taking on them. 

R Ashwin has been the MVP for the Royals this season; he has contributed with both bat as well as the ball. Yuzvendra Chahal is the leading wicket-taker this season. The spin duo could wreak havoc in Gujarat's batting lineup.
