The Rajasthan Royals are all set to play against the Gujarat Titans in the 24th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2024). This match will be played at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium on April 10th at 7:30 PM IST. 

The Royals have been a dominant force in this edition, emerging victorious in all four of their matches and currently leading the points table. This impressive track record is a testament to their skill and strategy. However, they are not resting on their laurels. They are hungry for more wins and eager to secure their qualification for the next round. 

A particular set of players has done the job for the Royals in this edition. A few of their trusted campaigners are also regaining their form, and they will be looking to impact the game positively. Before they take the field against the Titans, here are a few names that might emerge as the match-winners for RR.

The wicket at the Sawai Mansingh stadium has been competitive. The batters who spent some time without playing rash shots at the beginning have succeeded on this track. On the other hand, faster bowlers who were able to use their variations correctly have also picked up wickets. 

3 Match Winners for RR vs GT

Jos Buttler

The English opener played a fine knock in the last match against RCB. With that wonderful hundred, Jos Buttler has regained his lost form and will be looking to build on that against the Titans. 

In the five matches that Buttler has played against the Titans, he has scored 190 runs at an average of 38 and a strike rate of 150.8. His overall record at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, where he has scored runs at an average of 51.9 and a strike rate of 141, is also great. So the recent form and the ground stats prove that Buttler could once again be the game changer.

Yuzvendra Chahal

The Indian leg-spinner is currently the highest wicket-taker for his team in the tournament. His brilliantly efficient bowling in the middle overs has been one of the prime reasons for the RR's wins. 

Yuzvendra Chahal does not have a great number against GT, but he has a brilliant record at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium. In 13 matches, Chahal has picked up 18 wickets while having an economy of 7.14. Besides, Chahal's match-ups with GT's top batters are also in his favour. 

Vs Gill
Runs: 42 Balls: 41 Wickets: 2 Dots: 13

Vs Williamson (IPL)
Runs: 54 Balls: 54 Wickets: 1 Dots: 18

Vs Vijay Shankar
Runs: 13 Balls: 10 Wickets: 1 Dots: 4

With the match-ups acting in his favour, it seems like this would be one more game where Chahal delivers an impactful show. 


Sanju Samson

The RR-skipper has got a good start to the tournament. Sanju Samson has been pretty consistent with his bat in IPL 2024. Even though he does not have excellent numbers against GT, Samson’s numbers at RR are pretty decent. He has scored 807 runs at this venue in IPL in 28 innings at an average of 37 and a strike rate of 134.30. This shows that Samson has been consistent at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, and hence, we can hope that he will play one impactful knock in this game.
