Gujarat Titans vs Rajasthan Royals Head To Head Records Preview:
GT vs RR Head to Head: It is the battle between the top two teams of IPL 2022. Gujarat Titans will take on Rajasthan Royals in qualifier 1 of IPL 2022 at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. The winner of this game will directly book a place in the IPL finals. The Titans had emerged victorious when these two sides met in the competition earlier. The stage is set for a battle Royale.
Current Form: Gujarat Titans
The Gujarat Titans have arguably been the team of the tournament so far. They made a rollicking start to their Inaugural IPL with 8 wins in 9 games. GT won games from improbable situations. Most of the squad made telling contributions to their success. Shubman Gill, Wriddhiman Saha, David Miller, and Mohammad Shami have all flowered at this franchise. GT will expect another big performance from these key players.
.After an unprecedented run in the first nine games, GT has stuttered a bit. They have lost three of their last five games. Few of the chinks in their armor have started to appear. GT will be wary of its shortcomings. They will expect their star perfumers like Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, and captain, Hardik Pandya to fire. GT will be a tough side to beat.
Current Form: Rajasthan Royals
The Rajasthan Royals looked like a settled side right after the auctions. They seemed to have assembled a unit that would qualify for the playoffs. Royals true to the prediction played the game fair and square. They have been one of the very few sides who have looked dominant this season. RR is the only team to have won 7 games batting first this season. It shows the all-round prowess of the side.
The RR side of previous seasons was largely dependent on their overseas four. But it has been their Indian core this season that has lifted them. The spin twins, Yuzvendra Chahal and Ravichandran Ashwin have been an enviable combination. Yashasvi Jaiswal, Prasidh Krishna, Riyan Parag, and Kuldeep Sen stepped up when needed. They walk into this contest in some sizzling form. RR has won three of the last four games. Sanju Samson-led Royals might even start favorites in this contest.
The stakes:
It can’t get any bigger than this. The top two teams will be contesting for a place in the final. GT in their inaugural season will be looking to make headway into the finals. RR on the other hand will be keen to take this opportunity to count. It will be a top contest between arguably the two best sides of the competition.
