Rajasthan Royals (RR) will face Gujarat Titans (GT) in match number 47 of IPL 2025 at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Monday, April 28. With just two wins from nine matches, RR are all but out of the playoffs race. GT, on the other hand, are in second position, with 12 points from eight matches.

Rajasthan last won a match in IPL 2025 on April 5, when they thumped Punjab Kings (PBKS) by 50 runs in Mullanpur. Since then, they have registered five consecutive losses. There has been a shocking similar pattern to RR's losses in the last three matches as they have crumbed from a winning position in chases. Skipper Sanju Samson being in and out due to injury hasn't helped their cause.

Gujarat have had a highly clinical IPL 2025 campaign so far. Their top three of Sai Sudharsan, skipper Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler have made significant contributions, while Sherfane Rutherford has also chipped in with crucial cameos. In the bowling department, Prasidh Krishna has been exceptional, while Rashid Khan has lifted his game after an underwhelming start to the season.
