Sai Kishore to Maheesh TheekshanaOUT! GONE! CAUGHT! Gujarat Titans win in a commanding fashion and this marks their sixth win over Rajasthan Royals in the IPL. Also as per the on-air commentators RR have been bowled out for the first time after May 2023. Coming to the delivery Sai Kishore bowls flat and full drifting into the leg stump line. Maheesh Theekshana charges ahead and tries to clear long off but gets no real timing on it as he does not quite reach to the pitch of the ball. Airs it to long offwhere the ball dips ahead of the fielder. Sai Sudharsan moves forward and snaffles a good low catch.

Prasidh Krishna to Shimron HetmyerOUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! CAUGHT! The writing is on the wall for RR now as they lose their last hope in Shimron Hetmyer. Prasidh Krishna continues to hit the hard length skidding onto the body on the leg stump line. Shimron Hetmyer mistimes the pull shotas the ball bounces a bit extra off the deck. Hettie hits it only as far as Sai Kishore stationed at deep backward square leg. Wicket number three for Prasidh Krishna. And a fine inning of 52 off 32 from the strong Caribbean comes to an end.

Right then, the Titans extend their dominance over the Royals, making it six wins out of seven encounters between the two sides. Next up in the 2025 Indian Premier League, we head down south to Bengaluru, where the Royal Challengers Bengaluru take on the only unbeaten team in the competition, the Delhi Capitals. It's set to be an exciting clash at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, with the first ball scheduled for 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT), but make sure to join us early for all the pre-match build-up. Until then, take care and goodbye!

STRATEGIC BREAK. With the wicket of the dangerous-looking Sanju Samson, this is now RR's last recognised batting pair, with a long tail to follow. They still need 99 off the last 7 remaining overs, and they might feel they lost one too many wickets in the first half of the chase. The onus is now on the able shoulders of Shimron Hetmyer to bat till the end and get his team through the line. It is a tough, tough ask, though. While GT needs a couple of quick wickets to completely reign in their dominance on this game. Also, the fact that we haven't seen a single over from Sai Kishore as yet. Here's Rashid Khan (3-0-29-1) to continue after the break.
RR's Impact Player, Shubham Dubey, is in at number 7 with half of the side in the dugout.
Prasidh Krishna (1-0-12-0) returns. He replaces Kulwant Khejroliya.
Shimron Hetmyer is in next.
Dhruv Jurel walks in now.
STRATEGIC BREAK! The Powerplay was a tale of two halves, with the first half going GT's way, but the next 3 overs saw RR score 39 to finish on a high. Spotting the shift in momentum, Shubman Gill has smartly opted for the timeout at the first opportunity to break the flow and reset his plans. Sanju Samson and Riyan Parag are both looking in sublime touch, and for RR to chase this down, at least one of them will need to bat long. We haven’t seen any spin yet, but with the fielding restrictions now lifted, it shouldn’t be long before the spinners are brought into play. It will be pace after the break as Kulwant Khejroliya comes into the attack.
Mohammed Siraj seems to be not quite pleased with the ball's shape. He hands it over to the on-field umpire, and the ball passes well through the ring, of what is known as the ball gauge. Good to continue now.
Riyan Parag is in at number 4.
Nitish Rana is in at number 3.
Arshad Khan to operate from the far end.
