Match Overview:
Table-toppers in Match No. 47 of the current Indian Premier League 2025, the Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals square off at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Monday, April 28.
After last year’s failure, the Gujarat Titans are having a fantastic season. They are on track to make it to the playoffs after winning six of their first eight games. The team has been led by Shubman Gill. Jos Buttler and Sai Sudharsan have also routinely scored runs. Mohammad Siraj is also playing very well, and Prasidh Krishna is at the top of the season’s wicket-takers list. Gujarat enters this match fresh off an Eden Gardens victory against the Kolkata Knight Riders by 39 runs.
In contrast, the Rajasthan Royals’ campaign is unmemorable. After nine games, they are mired at No. 9 in the standings with two wins and seven losses. The first champions have lost four games under the Assam all-rounder, Riyan Parag, who has led the side in five games without Sanju Samson. It is concerning that the team has lost games from leading positions, particularly when chasing.
In their most recent match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, they were unable to score 18 runs off the final two overs with five wickets left. Even though the Royals are mathematically guaranteed a spot in the playoffs, they would like to concentrate on one game at a time right now.

Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur Pitch Report:
Teams batting first and second in the 2025 Indian Premier League have had a balanced record at Sawai Mansingh Stadium. Neither pursuing nor setting a target offers a definite benefit, as both innings average 177 runs. Nonetheless, the location has slightly favored first-batting teams over the past two years, with an average score of 180 versus 163 in the second innings. Remarkably, in IPL 2025, toss winners have won all of their games at this location, indicating that the toss may be very important.
