GT vs RR, IPL 2023: Probable XIs, pitch report, weather forecast, and live streaming details

The Gujarat Titans will square off against the Rajasthan Royals in the 23rd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 on Sunday (April 16). The Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad will host this clash. The game will be a repeat of last year’s final which was played between these two teams at the same venue.

Gujarat Titans have played four games in this edition so far. They have won three games out of those and lost one. They lost against the Kolkata Knight Riders but got back to winning ways by beating the Punjab Kings.

The bowlers picked up eight wickets in total to restrict the Kings to 153 after electing to bowl first, with Mohit Sharma finishing with figures of 2/18. In response, Shubman Gill scored a brilliant 67 at the top of the order. The game went down to the last over and the Titans held their nerves to chase it down with one ball to spare. They will be looking to repeat their performance on Sunday.

Rajasthan Royals have had a similar journey in IPL 2023 so far. They have won three games out of four. RR faced the Chennai Super Kings in Chennai in their last fixture and beat them in a thriller of a contest.

Jos Buttler scored 52 and contributions from their middle-order batters helped the Royals post 175 on the board. Ravichandran Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal picked up two wickets each.

With 21 needed of the last over and five of the last ball, Sandeep Sharma kept his cool and defended it successfully against MS Dhoni. The Royals will be high on confidence after that win and will look to carry forward the winning momentum.
