RR vs GT Dream11 Prediction: Gujarat Titans will have their task cut out when they play in-form Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League (IPL) match at Sawai Mansingh Indoor Stadium on Wednesday, April 10, 2024.
Before the last match, Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal struggled to make an impact in IPL 2024, both failing to contribute significantly with the bat. In fact, RR’s openers have been so lackluster that their average partnership after four matches is well below 10 runs per match, which is subpar.
Nevertheless, RR remains unbeaten, signaling the unthinkable potential and ferociousness they hold when their openers start firing. Out of the two openers, Buttler returned to form with a last-ball century against the Royal Challengers Bangalore, which is a formidable sign for the opponent.
Currently leading the IPL standings, the Royals are the only unbeaten team in the league. History suggests that 7 or 8 wins are often enough to secure a top-four spot, and with RR already at four wins in four matches, they are on track for the playoffs.
Meanwhile, Gujarat Titans are facing an uphill battle. They must improve significantly to secure a top-four spot for the third consecutive season. A major concern is the form of key players like Rashid Khan and Kane Williamson. Until these star players find their form, the 2022 champions may have to deal with inconsistency.

TOP Picks For RR vs GT Dream 11 Prediction Match
Captain Options:
- Jos Buttler: Scored an unbeaten 100 against the RCB, and guided his team to a fourth straight win in IPL 2024.

The Englishman is a good choice for the captain option in RR vs GT Dream11 Today Team.

With Yashasvi Jaiswal getting out in the first over, Samson was under immense pressure during the chase against RCB. But that’s the beauty of star players. Challenging situations tend to get the best out of them. And Samson is one such player who likes to lead his team with an example.
IPL 2024 Stats From Last Match: 69 runs (42, 8X4s, 2X6s). - Shubman Gill: He is the most important player in GT playing 11. Not only he is the captain, but he has to deliver every time with the bat.
