Wednesday, 10 Apr RR vs GT Match Prediction, Betting Odds and Tips

Key Match Factors – RR vs GT

• Batting second should be the way forward for teams. Dew is expected to play a part and bowling in the second half is going to be tough.
• Jos Buttler’s return to form is good news for the Royals. If he finds his feet early, the Titans may end up chasing leather.
• Shubman Gill is yet to be at his very best. He needs to be more consistent and lay the platform for the Titans in the top order.
• Trent Boult and Nandre Burger form a deadly duo. The GT batters need to be cautious while facing their initial burst.

Match Preview

Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Gujarat Titans (GT) will face each other in the 24th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 on Wednesday, April 10. The Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur will host the contest.

The Royals, led by Sanju Samson, have been among the standout teams of the tournament. RR have won all 4 of their matches and have 8 points with a net run rate of +1.120. They will go into the match after beating Faf du Plessis’ Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) by 6 wickets.

After opting to field first, the Royals restricted the Challengers to 183 for 3 in 20 overs. Jos Buttler scored an unbeaten 100 off 58 balls with 9 fours and 4 sixes to help the Royals past the finish line with 5 balls left in their innings. Samson lent Buttler support with a knock of 69 runs off 42 balls.

The Titans, led by Shubman Gill, have not been at their best by any stretch of the imagination.

Umesh Yadav and Darshan Nalkande picked up 2 wickets apiece as the Titans restricted their opponents to 163 for 5. GT faltered in their run-chase and were bowled out for 130 in 18.5 overs. Yash Thakur picked up 5 wickets to bowl away the Titans at the Ekana Stadium.
