RR vs GT Playing 11: Will Rajasthan Royals make sweeping changes even as Gujarat Titans aim to extend positive head to head record?

Rajasthan Royals host Gujarat Titans at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur at 7:30 pm on Monday.

RR, led by Riyan Parag in Sanju Samson’s absence, have lost five matches in a row, three of them being close games. The team can now reach only 14 points and is most likely out of the tournament. Performances have been far and scattered as the top order has been inconsistent. Yashasvi Jaiswal has the lone bright spot in batting, while youngster Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Parag, Nitish Rana and Dhruv Jurel have all had their ups and downs and have struggled to close out matches.

The bowling has been overly dependent on Jofra Archer, while Indian pacers including Sandeep Sharma and Tushar Deshpande have been expensive. Sri Lankan duo of Maheesh Theekshana and Wanindu Hasaranga have also been underwhelming.


GT have had a contrasting tournament and have lost just two out of eight matches and are placed second on the table. A win today will take them to the top of the table. The top order has been in top form as the trio of Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler have scored most of the runs. Sherfane Rutherford has been the glue in the middle order, while Rahul Tewtia has produced a couple of cameos.

The bowling has been the highlight of GT this year. Prasidh Krishna and Mohammed Siraj have delivered crucial breakthroughs, while spinners Sai Kishore and Rashid Khan have controlled the middle overs.
