RR vs GT: Royals eye to keep winning streak going, Titans aim to end losing streak

Table-toppers Rajasthan Royals (RR) will be in action once again as they host the Gujarat Titans (GT) in Match 24 of IPL 2024. The much-awaited clash is scheduled to take place at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Wednesday, April 10.

The Royals have been the team to beat so far in the tournament. They have displayed remarkable form, winning all four matches thus far. Their batting has been explosive, with Jos Buttler rediscovering his touch with a brilliant century in the previous match. Skipper Sanju Samson has also been amongst the runs, meanwhile Riyan Parag is finally looking to have his breakout season.

On the other hand, the Titans have had a disappointing start. They have slumped to three losses in their last five games and are currently placed precariously at seventh on the table. While Shubman Gill has fared decently, he has lacked enough support from other batters. An untimely injury to David Miller hasn’t helped their cause as well.

The Royals will be aiming to extend their winning streak and solidify their position at the top of the table. GT, meanwhile, desperately need a win to get their campaign back on track.

RR vs GT Match details

Match: Rajasthan Royals (RR) vs Gujarat Titans (GT), Match 24, IPL 2024

Sawai Mansingh Pitch report

The Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur has hosted three IPL 2024 games thus far. While none of those games saw any team hitting 200 runs, the average first-innings total has been close to 190 this season.

One crucial factor to consider is how the pitch behaves under lights. In one of the games between RR vs DC, the second innings saw the surface develop some stickiness, aiding the spinners. A similar scenario might unfold during the RR vs GT encounter, especially if the first innings sees a flurry of runs. Early swing and some assistance for pacers are also anticipated in the initial overs.
