Gujarat Titans (GT) will take on Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Qualifier 2 of the Indian Premier League 2026 (IPL 2026) at Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Mullanpur, New Chandigarh, as the two teams battle to seal their spot in the final. GT were hammered by 92 runs in Qualifier 1 by Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), but as they finished in the top two of the IPL 2026 points table, they will get another chance to make it to the summit clash in the upcoming fixture.
On the other hand, Rajasthan are coming into the match, having registered three back-to-back victories in their last three fixtures. They advanced to Qualifier 2 after beating Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) by 47 runs in the Eliminator game and are carrying good momentum in the upcoming fixture. With a place in the final at stake, both teams will not be giving an inch to each other as the intensity is set to go several notches higher in the all-important Qualifier 2.

Players to watch out for in GT vs RR
Shubman Gill
The GT skipper had a rare failure in the previous fixture against RCB as he lost his stumps for just two runs against Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Gill is the fourth-highest run scorer of the season with 618 runs from 14 innings. The opening batter has redefined himself in the ongoing edition, registering his best-ever strike rate (159.27) in a single season of the IPL. With Gujarat eyeing their third appearance in a final, they will require their captain to lead from the front with a big knock in the upcoming fixture.
Jofra Archer
The right-arm speedster was at his menacing best in the previous fixture against SRH, having dismantled their top order with his fiery pace. Archer is the third-highest wicket-taker of the season with 24 wickets from 15 innings at an average of 21.41. He will again pose a big threat to Gujarat’s famed top order in the upcoming fixture.
