The second one is smashed into the second tier beyond midwicket. The third is hit over the fielder at mid off for a four. Then he swings his bat wildly at the fifth ball and guess what, it takes an edge and goes all the way over third man for a six. Two wides after that and then again, big swing, edge and a one-bounce four to third man.

RR 60/0 in 4 overs

RR vs GT IPL Live Score 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: This is a fairly good start for RR, even though they still have a mountain to climb. Ishant Sharma bowls the second over, with one batter being about five years old and the other yet to be born for another five years when he had made his first class debut. Buttler drops an absolute sitter off the very first ball, gives Jaiswal a reprieve and Suryavanshi also gets off strike second ball.

RR 19/0 in 2 overs

RR vs GT IPL Live Score 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: The teenager continues to show that his age is just a number, especially when it comes to the power in his hands. Jaiswal gets off strike first ball and then Siraj bowls a wide down the leg side and then another outside off before getting the second ball right. The third ball is then a length delivery, Suryavanshi leans forward and launches the ball into the stratosphere, it lands over the boundary behind the bowler. Two more singles after that makes it 11 runs off the first over.

RR vs GT IPL Live Score 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: Not often do we see Yashasvi Jaiswal as a senior in any level of senior cricket but here we are, with Jaiswal facing up to Siraj and Vaibhav Suryavanshi, nearly a decade younger than the 23-year-old, at the other end.

Archer finishes with figures of 1/49, he dismissed Tewatia with the second ball of that last over. Tewatia hit him for a six before that and Shahrukh Khan smashed a four after. A single and a double after that in that over. RR have a real mountain to climb if they are stay in contention for the playoffs.

RR vs GT IPL Live Score 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: Washington Sundar's stay is a short one. Sandeep Sharma bowls out in the 19th, his fourth ball is slices by Sundar very high up in the air. Hetmyer runs in from deep cover, Yudhvir was running in from cover and the two almost collide. In fact on broadcast it looked like they had made a mess of it as Hetmyer stayed on the ground with his face down for a few seconds, but that was more out of relief than disgust.

RR vs GT IPL Live Score 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: Sandeep Sharma needs some attention on his fingers as he fields a venomous shot back to him by Gill off the fourth ball of the 16th over that he bowled.

The third ball is sent clean over Hasaranga's head for another six. The fourth is short down the leg side, Buttler pulls it past short fine leg for a four.

Sudharsan is on 26 off 20 balls, Gill on 25 off 16. RR don't really seem to have any idea about how to stop the free flow of runs at the moment. Well, they had a chance to do so but then Hetmyer dropped it.

RR vs GT IPL Live Updates 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: We are seeing visuals of a beaming Rashid Khan giving Karim Janat his debut cap for Gujarat Titans. Will be interesting to see who he is replacing.

RR vs GT IPL Live Updates 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: "Third match at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in this season. It's relatively hot, there's a gentle breeze blowing across. It's pitch number 6, the square boundaries - 63m and 67m, down the ground - 71m. Two previous matches here this season, the average first innings score is 177. Since 2024, we haven't seen a 200+ score. When you look down at this wicket, you can see a very good grass covering, it's very hard, the cracks are slightly moving, so it may not be a 200+ wicket, but a 180+ score here will be in the game. It looks better than that. All the live grass here, you think the ball is gonna skid on nicely. Don't think there'll be any sideways turn either. When you think about the dimensions, they are juicy for these power-hitters. 180+ will be a very good total," say Daren Ganga and Matthew Hayden.

RR vs GT IPL Live Updates 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: Gujarat Titans had a season to forget last year and among the things that have improved this year is the number of runs they have scored in the middle overs. Their strike rate has jumped from 142 last year to to 165 this season, and their average has more than doubled from 26.8 to 61.1.

RR vs GT IPL Live Updates 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: “We're probably out of the tournament in terms of the points table, but that doesn't mean there's not a lot to play for, obviously as a team we want to make sure we finish the season strong and continue playing well,” said RR bowling coach Shane Bond.

Now obviously anyone who is part of the team would say the company line of them wanting to just win matches regardless of the points table and wanting to finish strong and so on, but perhaps the important to note is that RR seem to have accepted the fact that they are not getting out of the league stage.

RR vs GT IPL Live Updates 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: That is what finisher Shahrukh Khan had to say in the pre-match press conference. He was asked if GT's middle order's lack of time in the middle has been a cause of concern. "As a middle order, there's lots of pressure off you by how our top three is batting. Yes, there is not much game time for few of us in the middle order but that's been compensated in practice," he said.

RR vs GT IPL Live Updates 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler have been in fine touch this season which has played a huge role in GT's success. They are averaging 53.90 this season and all of them were in the top 10 of the Orange Cap table until recently when Gill got pushed down to 11th by Priyansh Arya.

RR vs GT IPL Live Updates 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: Yashasvi Jaiswal is just 37 runs away from reaching 2000 runs. He will become the third fastest to get there if he does it today, after Ruturaj Gaikwad (57 innings) and KL Rahul (60 innings).

RR vs GT IPL Live Updates 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: In fact, Gill might not have a great time today as a batter. Apart from being dismissed three times by Archer, he has managed to score just 10 runs against him. Meanwhile, Akash Madhwal and Tushar Deshpande have also dismissed him twice each while he has scored at a strike rate of 65.62 against Sandeep Sharma.

RR vs GT IPL Live Updates 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: Shubman Gill has been in fine form this season and getting him out early would be crucial to RR's already slim chances today. Jofra Archer could do a thing or two about that. He has bowled just 15 balls in the IPL to Shubman Gill but has dismissed him thrice.

RR vs GT IPL Live Updates 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: Among the key contributors to RR slipping up this season has been Shimron Hetmyer's inability to get into his usual groove. Hetmyer's death overs strike rate (156) has considerably dropped from 200 and 192 over the last two seasons.

RR vs GT IPL Live Updates 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: RR had beaten CSK and Punjab Kings in consecutive matches at the start of this month and it had looked like they had finally got their combination correct. Unfortunately for them, it was only a false dawn and they have lost every game since.

RR vs GT IPL Live Updates 2025, Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans: If RR lose today, then any chances of them still making it to the playoffs will be nothing more than a mathematical curiosity. So they won't be too happy about the fact that they are up against a Gujarat Titans side who have just been firing on all cylinders for much of this season.
