GT vs RR, IPL 2023: Toss result and playing 11s for today's match, umpires list and pitch report

Gujarat Titans (GT) will take on Rajasthan Royals (RR) in match number 23 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday, April 16. This game will be the second match of the double-header.

GT have kicked off their title defense in impressive fashion, winning three of their first four matches. Their only loss in the tournament so far, against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), was down to the individual brilliance of Rinku Singh. They recovered well to register a six-wicket win over Punjab Kings (PBKS) and will be confident going into their clash against Rajasthan.

RR, meanwhile, were given a tough fight by Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in their previous match, but survived to register a three-run win. Devdutt Padikkal getting back among the runs was a big positive for Rajasthan from their game against CSK. Ravichandran Ashwin’s success as an all-rounder can encourage them to be flexible with their playing XI.
