IPL 2022 | Qualifier 1 | GT vs RR | Fantasy Tips

We are finally at the knockout stages of the Indian Premier League 2022 after a long journey of seventy group stage games. The first qualifier of the league will see group stage heavyweights Gujrat Titans (GT) clash against Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the quest to make it into the finals.

Gujarat are coming into this game with a loss in their previous match against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). At the same time, Rajasthan beat Chennai Super Kings in their last match to secure a place amongst the top two teams in the league standings.

After much planning and consideration, we have a list of names that could provide you with some profound benefits in fantasy contests.

Superstars of the game

Yuzvendra Chahal: The Purple Cap holder has been on fire in the Indian Premier League this time around and has given his career a new spark. Chahal is quite close to reaching the thirty wicket mark with two guaranteed fixtures left in his bag with twenty-six wickets to his name.

Wriddhiman Saha: The West Bengal wicket-keeper batter has proved the critics wrong and established himself as a crucial player in Gujarat's top order. The player has scored 312 runs in his nine outings and has been in good touch with the bat in the last few games.

Ravichandran Ashwin: Ashwin has been an essential player for the Rajasthan Royals in their journey to the playoffs this season. The veteran has been in good shape with the bat and the ball and will play a crucial part in the upcoming games if Rajasthan hopes to lift their second title.

Expert Picks for the game

Experts take,

Hardik Pandya: "The GT skipper has made a dream comeback to the shortest format of the game and once again proven why he is perhaps one of the best all-rounders across the globe. Hardik has taken his team to the top of the points table in their debut season and has played a valiant role with the bat scoring 413 runs."

Jos Buttler: "Jos 'The Boss' Buttler had a dream run in the tournament's first half as the batter crossed the five hundred runs mark in just eight games. However, he has struggled with the bat as of late and will look to turn things around and finish the season on a high note, with dreams to clinch a title that has evaded Rajasthan since their win in the inaugural season."

Sanju Samson: "The RR skipper is perhaps one of the most underrated players in the current circuit, mainly due to his own shortcomings. Samson has been inconsistent with the bat and has struggled to convert his starts this season. However, there is no denying the extreme talent he possesses and can change the game's flow with his fearless batting in the middle overs."
