Rajasthan Royals (RR) will host Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Monday, April 28, in Match 47 of IPL 2025.

Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur: Pitch Report for RR vs GT

The pitch at Sawai Mansingh Stadium typically offers a balanced contest between batters and bowlers. The surface has low bounce and the square boundaries are quite large, making power-hitting slightly challenging. Scores around 170–180 are considered competitive, with successful chases becoming tricky.

Batsmen need to settle in, respect the conditions, and build their innings. Bowlers who vary their pace and target hard lengths often find assistance, while spinners usually come into play in the middle and later stages of the match. In the last fixture here, RR narrowly missed chasing down 181 against LSG, falling short by just two runs in a tense finish.

Expect a match where intelligent cricket, good rotation of strike, and clever bowling variations will be key to winning.
