IPL match today, GT vs RR: Team Prediction, head to head, Narendra Modi Stadium pitch report, weather in Ahmedabad | Cricket News
Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals share many similarities, but their paths in IPL 2025 have diverged due to how their strengths have played out—one has thrived, while the other has struggled.
The Gujarat Titans are currently in second place on the points table, thanks to the exceptional performance of their top three batters. Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, and Jos Buttler have contributed over 70% of the team’s runs, tallying 503 out of 715. Their primary strategy is working well—perhaps too well?

What do you expect from the pitch at the Narendra Modi Stadium for GT vs RR?
On the other hand, the Rajasthan Royals have already faced this challenge this season. With Yashasvi Jaiswal’s inconsistent form and Sanju Samson returning from injury, their middle order has been put to the test.
However, some backup players stepped up last week, leading to a solid victory over the Chennai Super Kings in Guwahati. Nitish Rana and his team seem more battle-ready compared to Shahrukh Khan and his squad.
