The 23rd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 features the Gujarat Titans up against Rajasthan Royals at the Narendra Modi Stadium. The two teams are heading into this contest on the back of stellar victories and will look to continue the momentum in this crucial clash.
In the upcoming clash, RR will miss Wanindu Hasaranga as the all-rounder will not be available due to personal reasons. However, GT are going in with the same XI. Ahead of the contest we look at who can be the impact players for both the sides.
GT Impact Player Today
Gujarat Titans: Anuj Rawat, Mahipal Lomror, Washington Sundar, Nishant Sindhu
Since Gujarat Titans will be bowling second, they need a quality bowler who can also take wickets to put pressure on RR batters and the best choice for Shubman Gill is to bring in X-factor, Washington Sundar. The wily spinner has done well for the GT team and could bring in something different as the batters have found it hard to play him.
Rajasthan Royals: Shubham Dubey, Kunal Singh Rathore, Yudhvir Singh, Akash Madhwal, Kumar Kartikeya
Rajasthan will be batting second and in that regards, Shubham Dubey seems like the likely choice to bring in as impact sub. He showed glimpses of his brilliance in the IPL 2025 and could be a brilliant choice for Impact sub.
OneCricket’s Final Prediction
Going by the tactics of both the sides, GT will look to bring in their terrific all-rounder, Washington Sundar to tackle the likes of Sanju Samson and Yashasvi Jaiswal. On the other hand, Shubham Dubey will most likely come in as the Impact Player for RR.
