Fantasy Cricket Tips For RR vs GT: For match 24 of IPL 2022, table-leaders Rajasthan Royals will meet Gujarat Titans, another in-form side, at the DY Patil Stadium on Thursday evening. Both the franchise have acquired 6 points each from 4 matches so far.
Sanju Samson’s side is coming off a close 3-run win over Lucknow Super Giants where they managed to escape a scare from Marcus Stoinis as young debutant Kuldeep Sen successfully defended 15 runs in the last over against the burly Australian. With Sen stepping up in his debut game, it could be argued that RR have the strongest bowling attack of all teams.
Hardik Pandya’s team, on the other hand, are coming off a loss – their first after winning their first three matches – at the hands of Sunrisers Hyderabad. The Titans also have a potent bowling attack but failed to defend 162 against SRH as Kane Williamson drove his side over the line.
Here, we bring you the best fantasy cricket tips for this exciting contest:
Venue: DY Patil Stadium, Navi Mumbai
CSK and RCB played a high-scoring contest just a day ago. However, in the case of Rajasthan and Gujarat, with two strong bowling attacks and both teams having batting as their weaker department, a high-scoring encounter is not expected, but the match could go down the wire with leg-spinners – Chahal and Rashid Khan – making big impacts.
RR news and predicted XI:
With five proper bowlers plus Riyan Parag’s part-time off-spin, there seems no reason for RR to change their eleven from the last game.
RR predicted XI: Jos Buttler, Devdutt Padikkal, Sanju Samson (c & wk), Rassie van der Dussen, Shimron Hetmyer, Riyan Parag, Kuldeep Sen, Ravichandran Ashwin, Trent Boult, Prasidh Krishna, Yuzvendra Chahal
GT news and predicted XI:
Gujarat would quickly want to forget their loss to SRH and return to winning ways. Even then, though, they are likely to bench Matthew Wade who has continued to struggle in Indian conditions – Wade has scored 56 runs at less than run-a-ball in 4 innings at the top of the order for GT.
Wriddhiman Saha, a much more attacking opener in T20s, is likely to replace Wade and the other option is Afghanistan’s Rahmanullah Gurbaz. If Saha replaces Wade, Alzarri Joseph could also come in for Darshan Nalkande, who has leaked runs at more than 11 an over. Pradeep Sangwan is another alternative experienced pacer in the squad.
GT predicted XI: Wriddhiman Saha/Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, Hardik Pandya (c), David Miller, Rahul Tewatia, Abhinav Manohar, Rashid Khan, Lockie Ferguson, Mohammed Shami, Darshan Nalkande/Alzarri Joseph/Pradeep Sangwan
Fantasy cricket tips: Both sides have strong bowling attacks, so you can omit some even big-name batters from your fantasy eleven. Hardik Pandya is looking to play the anchor role and bat through the innings, plus he also bowls 3-4, making him a safe captaincy choice.
Though Shimron Hetmyer has been in superb form, against Titans’ bowling attack, you can risk dropping him.
Based on the above fantasy cricket tips, here is the best XI for the SRH-GT match on Dream XI:
Wicket-keeper: Jos Buttler (VC), Sanju Samson
Batsman: Devdutt Padikkal, Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill
All-rounder: Hardik Pandya (C)
Bowler: Kuldeep Sen, Prasidh Krishna, Trent Boult, Yuzvendra Chahal, Rashid Khan
Chahal and Rashid Khan are also good options for C and VC.
