Rajasthan Royals playing at home is the only positive for them in this match for Rajasthan.
Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur is a great ground for a balanced game with help for both batters and bowlers in the IPL. This ground has hosted a total of 59 matches so far in the IPL history, providing help for the chasing team more than the team batting first.

The average first innings score of this ground is 163.

Yashasvi Jaiswal has been in good touch this IPL 2025. He is the top run scorer in this season with 356 runs in 9 matches. He has an average of 39.56 and a strike rate of 148.95. Jaiswal was not in a good form in the first half of the season but in the recent matches, Jaiswal looked in sublime touch. In recent games, Jaiswal scored 74 against LSG and 75 against RCB.
Jofra Archer has been steady with the ball for Rajasthan Royals. In IPL 2025 he has picked up 9 wickets in 9 matches with a best figure of 3/25. Jofra Archer has been expensive but he has great numbers against Gujarat Titans’ batters including Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler. In the recent match he took two wickets against Delhi Capitals.
Sai Sudharsan has been the top batter for Gujarat Titans in IPL 2025. Sai is the orange cap holder for this season with his 417 runs in just 8 matches. He holds an average of 52.13 and a strike-rate of 152.18. Sai have registered five fifties already in the season and there are six matches still left. In recent matches, Sudharsan hit 82 against Rajasthan Royals and 52 against Kolkata Knight Riders in the last match.
Shubman Gill has had a strong IPL 2025. Gill has found his rhythm in the last match with his brilliant 90 runs against his first IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders. Gill has scored a total of 305 runs in 8 matches at an average of 43.57. Shubman Gill is the captain of Gujarat Titans and holds a lot of responsibility which will help him to excel in this match. However, Shubman Gill will have to avoid Jofra Archer in this match due to his poor performance against him in personal matchups.
Riyan Parag has played some handy knocks for Rajasthan Royals this season. However he looked immatured in the last match looking to take on Krunal Pandya even when it was not needed. His team was well ahead of Royal Challengers Bengaluru but he still chose to go the aerial route which cost his team. He has scored a total of 234 runs in 9 matches at a strike rate of 152.94. He will be eager to break out the critical comments against him and his team.
Washington Sundar has been used as a utility player for Gujarat Titans. He will be used in case Gujarat Titans lose early wickets. He was used in the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad where he scored 49 runs. He is also contributing in the bowling department with his 1 for 36 in the last game against Kolkata Knight Riders and 1 for 28 in the match before that. He can be a valuable pick if Jofra Archer picks early wickets in this match.
