Gujarat Titans (GT) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) will square off against each other in the 23rd match of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) season on Wednesday, April 9. The anticipated clash will take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad and is scheduled to start at 7:30 PM IST.

Gujarat Titans currently sit second on the points table, having won three of their first four matches, and aim to maintain their strong form to go top of the standings. On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals have bounced back from their early setbacks as they won their last two and will now look to extend their streak and climb higher in the table.

As a mouthwatering clash awaits in Ahmedabad, here are the top three captain and vice-captain choices for GT vs RR Match 23 of IPL 2025.

3. Riyan Parag

Why Will Riyan Parag Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-captain?

Riyan Parag will start as one of the top fantasy picks ahead of GT vs RR. The dynamic right-handed batter has earned maximum points from the RR camp this season so far. Parag is averaging at least 86 points per match as he has been contributing with both bat and ball.

Moreover, RR has struggled to go big in the middle-overs this season and Riyan Parag can be the answer to their problems like we saw in RR’s last match where Riyan scored an unbeatable 25-ball 43. He needs to replicate what he has been doing since last year as nobody has more runs than him (487 runs, 60.88 average) in middle-overs.

2. Jos Buttler

Why Will Jos Buttler Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-captain?

Jos Buttler has started his IPL 2025 campaign in style. The veteran keeper batter has scored 166 runs in the first four games at an average of 55.33 and at a strike-rate of 167.67. His current form makes him a top captain and vice-captain choice ahead of this game.

Besides, Buttler loves playing at the Narendra Modi Stadium. In a total of 10 matches he has played in Ahmedabad in international and IPL, Buttler has scored 410 runs at an average of 51.25 average and at a strike-rate of 149.23 which makes his case even stronger in the fantasy XI.

1. Shubman Gill

Why Will Shubman Gill Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-captain?

Shubman Gill continues to be one of the top captain and vice-captain choices for GT matches in this year's IPL. The ace-batter finally got the much needed big score in the last match as he scored a magnificent unbeaten 61 off 43.

Notably, there is nobody better than Gill when it comes to playing at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. The GT captain has amassed 1150 runs at an average of 67.64 and at a strike-rate of 163.81 which includes four centuries and four half-centuries.
