This match will see RR looking to break out of their mini-slump as their bowlers continue to struggle with run flow management.

The Royals appear to be well equipped, boasting powerful players such as Jos Buttler and Rahul Tewatia that can lead their innings with ease.
Additionally, Ishant Sharma and Mohammed Siraj have provided experienced fast bowling services; although both of them have yet to live up to their reputation.

However, Royals had their most impressive victory against KKR during the IPL 2023 at Kolkata when they chased down 226/6 with four wickets still remaining and Yashasvi Jaiswal earned himself Player of the Match with an unbeaten 98 off 47 balls to earn himself this distinction while Yuzvendra Chahal took four wickets as part of their effort on behalf of Royals.

Both teams need wins to stay relevant in the IPL 2025 table and remain relevant, with Titans poised to break into the upper tier while Royals sit buried at the bottom with only four points from nine matches so far.
Even with their dismal run of form, the Royals still remain alive in their playoff chase despite an uneven performance over recent games. If they want any chance of making it to the play-offs, they must win two consecutive matches while hoping that other teams lose too.
An impressive win will also boost their young players, such as Jofra Archer, Shimron Hetmyer and Nitish Rana who have all shown promise so far this season and could provide the late innings push RR needs if their top order can provide adequate foundations.
Mohammad Siraj and Prasidh Krishna have been impressive bowlers so far this season for the Titans, taking 14 wickets each between them with the new ball – as have Ishant Sharma and Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore who also proved highly effective against spin bowling opponents last season.
Both sides’ batting has been impressive of late, with Riyan Parag and Yashasvi Jaiswal particularly impressing their home crowd in recent matches – Riyan made his second consecutive fifty in their win against Mullanpur while Yashasvi impressed in their last match against Punjab with an outstanding unbeaten 67 off 45 balls!
Jaipur’s pitch will likely provide batsmen with plenty of bounce and firm deck under a light grass covering, as well as potential dew later in the evening. Long square boundaries should help batsmen score big runs while spinners will find it tougher to gain turn and pace from this surface.
