Rajasthan Royals (RR) will face Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium on Friday night in the IPL in a clash between two of the title favourites.
The Titans have picked up this year where they left off in 2022, with the defending champions currently on top of the points table after winning six of their first nine matches.
A shock defeat against Delhi Capitals last time out, by five runs, has derailed them slightly, but they are still in great shape to qualify for the playoffs.
They can take another step towards that against RR. The Royals are currently fourth, but have played a game less than their rivals, and victory could see them leap back to the summit.
They are also coming off a loss, having been beaten by Mumbai Indians (MI) on Sunday, but they will be slightly favoured to win this one and complete a double for the season over the Titans to back up their three-wicket win on April 16.
Here The Sporting News gives you all the details of how to watch this match live and for free.
