As Rajasthan Royals will take on the Gujarat Titans in the 47th match of IPL 2025 at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur, all eyes will be on three key bowlers who could make the difference in this high-stakes encounter.

1. Mohammed Siraj (GT)

One of India’s premier fast bowlers, Mohammed Siraj has built a reputation for swinging the new ball and striking early in the powerplay. Siraj remains a high-impact player in IPL and will look to play an important role yet again.

  • IPL 2025 Form: Mohammed Siraj Has picked-up 9 wickets in 4 matches with an economy of 7.75 so far in this season
  • Tactical Importance and Statistical Edge: Has claimed 6 wickets against RR in recent matches, including key batsmen like Sanju Samson and Yashasvi Jaiswal.
  • Ground Advantage: His ability to swing the new ball makes him particularly dangerous at Sawai Mansingh Stadium.

2. Prasidh Krishna (GT)

A tall right-arm fast bowler, Prasidh Krishna is known for his raw pace and ability to extract extra bounce. Prasidh was snapped up by Gujarat Titans for INR 9.50 Crore ahead of TATA IPL 2025.

  • IPL 2025 Form: Has picked-up 16 wickets in 8 matches with an economy of 7.29 so far in this season.
  • Head-to-Head: He grabbed 9 wickets in 6 IPL matches against RR with an economy rate of 8.28.
  • New Ball Threat: As GT's leading wicket-taker, his precision with the new ball could trouble RR's top order batters.

3. Tushar Deshpande (RR)

Right-arm medium-fast bowler Tushar Deshpande is an excellent wicket-taker. Rajasthan Royals secured his services for INR 6.5 crore, and now as an experienced campaigner, he will be a key weapon in RR’s pace attack alongside Sandeep Sharma and Jofra Archer.

  • IPL 2025 Form: Has picked-up 6 wickets in 8 matches with an economy of 11.25 so far in this season.
  • Tactical Importance and Statistical Edge: Has taken 8 wickets against GT, including dismissing Yashasvi Jaiswal once and Shubman Gill three times.
  • Match-up Edge: Despite a high economy (11.25), his knack for taking crucial wickets makes him valuable.
