GT Playing XI vs RR – RR vs GT: On May 5, the table-toppers and defending champions Gujarat Titans will visit Rajasthan Royals in a crucial Indian Premier League 2023 (IPL 2023) match. Both sides have just suffered defeats in their most recent contests. This is a top of the table clash and the team who will win this fixture will go at the summit of the league. The almost perfect playing combination has finally been discovered by GT, and it has been working well for them in recent games. That’s why it’s hard to imagine that Hardik Pandya will alter the GT Playing 11.
Shubman Gill, who is now in good form and was deployed as an impact player in the previous game, will once more be a substitute.
The Titans are in the lead in the IPL 2023 Points Table with 12 points after nine games. The Royals will have the opportunity to overtake them and take the top spot in the interim.
When the Titans failed to chase 131 in Ahmedabad, their illustrious chasing record suffered a minor setback. The Hardik Pandya-led squad squandered a tremendous opportunity to put further distance between themselves and the other four teams, who are tied on 10 points. And in the game vs RR, the GT will hope to create a wider gap between them at the top.
GT Playing 11: The Combinations
- The opening duo of Shubman Gill and Wriddhiman Saha will retain, with the latter playing exceptionally well in the current IPL.
- Hardik Pandya climbed the ladder to No 3 spot in the team and will continue to do so.
- Vijay Shankar will continue in the team, while Dasun Shanaka will have to wait for his debut.
- David Miller, Rahul Tewatia, and Abhinav Manohar will be the finishers for defending champs.
- Mohammed Shami will showcase his skill with the new ball while Rashid Khan will lead the spin attack.
- Rashid Khan can also be quite useful with the bat.
