Ahmedabad Weather Forecast & Update for Sunday’s (May 29) IPL 2022 Final match between Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals: Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals have faced each other twice but the champions of the inaugural edition of IPL, RR, have not been able to beat the Gujarat side yet. On Sunday (May 29), Rajasthan will get one last chance in the current season to break the jinx. But the stakes are going to be a lot higher this time as a victory against Gujarat will help the Sanju Samson-led side to lift the prestigious IPL trophy for the second time.
Earlier, Rajasthan’s aspirations of winning IPL suffered a jolt as they had endured a seven-wicket defeat against Gujarat Titans in the Qualifier 1. But in the Eliminator they managed to outclass Royal Challengers Bangalore on Friday (May 27) and claimed their spot in the final.
