GT vs RR – Playing 11, Toss Update & Match Prediction

Check out the playing XI, toss result, pitch report, and match prediction for today’s GT vs RR IPL 2025 clash. Stay updated with key match insights and expert analysis.

The IPL caravan rolls on, and next up is a juicy contest between two regional rivals – Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals. Not only are these sides stacked with talent, but they’ve also been two of the most consistent teams over the last few years. Throw in the fact that they’re regional rivals, and you’ve got a recipe for an absolute cracker.  

Gujarat might’ve started their campaign with a stumble against Punjab Kings, but since then, they’ve roared back to life. Wins over Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and Sunrisers Hyderabad have given them serious momentum. Their top three — Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill, and Jos Buttler — are in sublime touch and look ready to steamroll any attack. If that trio gets going again, Rajasthan’s bowlers will have to be at the top of their game to even think about stopping them. 

But the Royals aren’t backing down. After a sluggish start with two early losses, they’ve hit their stride with back-to-back wins against heavyweights CSK and PBKS. What’s even more impressive? They haven’t played a single match at their fortress in Jaipur yet. That’s still to come — and you can bet they’ll be eyeing those home games to build a strong push for the playoffs. But before that, they’ve got a massive hurdle to clear in Ahmedabad. Two teams loaded with match-winners, two dugouts brimming with belief, and one fiery contest that could tilt the early title race. Expect a cracker of a match tonight.
