Players to watch out for in RR vs GT
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi
The teenage batting sensation had a rare failure in the previous fixture against Delhi Capitals. Sooryavanshi is the leading run scorer for his side with 404 runs to his name from 10 innings at an average of 40.40 and a strike rate of 237.64. He will be keen to put the GT bowlers to the sword in the upcoming fixture.
Kagiso Rabada
The right-arm speedster has been at his menacing best with the new ball, having rattled batters with his pace. He has scalped 16 wickets from ten innings so far and will again look to unsettle RR batters in the upcoming fixture.
