A mouth-watering contest awaits cricket fans on Thursday, April 14 as table-toppers Rajasthan Royals will take on Gujarat Titans. The two teams are in a similar situation in the league as they have won three out of their four league games.
Rajasthan Royals scored an exciting win against Lucknow Super Giants in their recent league match by three runs. It was an all-round performance from the 2008 champions. Thus, they are unlikely to tinker with their playing XI and the same players are expected to take the field on Thursday.

Coming to Gujarat Titans, the team needs to add some good power-hitters in the middle order following their loss against SunRisers Hyderabad. The team’s overseas batting duo of Matthew Wade and David Miller are yet to shine with the bat.
However, the team management can give them another chance on Thursday to prove their mettle. Meanwhile, spinner Darshan Nalkande can be dropped from the team following his back-to-back poor performances. He can make way for another Indian spinner, R Sai Kishore.
