The clash between the Gujarat Titans (GT) and the Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the IPL brings together a team that made an instant impact and a franchise with a legacy of success. Rajasthan Royals was founded in 2008 and became the first team to win the Indian Premier League that year. In contrast, the Gujarat Titans entered the league in 2022 and immediately made history by winning the title in their debut season. GT won the IPL title in 2022 by beating the Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the final. RR won their first title in 2008 by beating five-time champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the final. GT also played the final of the IPL 2023 but went on to lose the close encounter against CSK on the last ball of the match.
