One thing I want to say now.Yes Parag failed today also but we dint lose only cuz of him.He played after a couple of games and you should give it to Rashid for that ball.We failed collectively.Unless Butler gets his form,Its gonna be a struggle.Sanju should not bat @ 3#RRvsGT

Rajasthan Royals is so laughable 🙏😂

*They have a home ground SMS that is completely against their batters aggressive approach
*Playing Riyan Parag since 2018 without a single good knock
*Making DDP bat in middle order when the could have easily released him #RRvsGT #GTvsRR

#RR lost 4 matches out of their last 5 matches, the only win was against CSK.

RR was at the top during initial phase and now they have lost momentum.

How fast night changes in IPL.#RRvsGT #ipl

Talking about the entire action of the match, the bowling attack of Gujarat Titans bundled up the Royals with only a score of 118 runs in 17.5 overs. Skipper Sanju Samson played a struggling knock of 30 runs off 20 balls with three boundaries and a six to his name. Other than him, none of the RR batters crossed the individual mark of 20+ runs.

Rashid Khan and Noor Ahmed scalped three and two wickets respectively for the Gujarat Titans alongside one wicket each by Mohammed Shami, skipper Hardik Pandya, and Josh Little.

Later on, while chasing the target, the visitors didn’t seem in trouble at any stage of the run-chase; they comfortably crossed the line and scored 119 runs for the loss of one wicket in 13.5 overs to win the match by a massive margin of 9 wickets. Only dismissed batter Shubman Gill scored 36 runs with six boundaries.

Other than him, the senior opener Wriddhiman Saha and skipper Hardik Pandya played the unbeaten knocks of 41 and 39 runs respectively to take GT home only in the 14^th over of the game.
