It will be a re-match of the IPL 2022 Qualifier 1 match when Gujarat Titans clash with the Rajasthan Royals in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday. GT will get the privilege of playing in the front of their home crowd but RR, on the other hand, would hope a change in venue will bring them luck.
RR does not have a good record against GT. In the two matches that they have played against each other in this year’s IPL, GT have emerged on the winning side on both occasions.
RR captain Sanju Samson will be hoping to change that in the biggest match of the tournament. If Jos Buttler fires at the top as he did in Qualifier 2 match against Royal Challengers Bangalore then RR’s chances will be bright. Young Yashasvi Jaiswal and Devdutt Padikkal along with captain Samson will look to support Buttler by playing important knocks.
RR’s biggest challenge will be to see off Mohammed Shami with the new ball and then tackle Rashid Khan in the middle. Buttler had played Shami well but he was very subdued against Rashid.
RR’s bowling attack will also be under the scanner after being taken to the cleaners by David Miller and Hardik Pandya the last time these two sides met.
