RR Vs GT, IPL 2026: Rashid Khan, Jason Holder Destroy Rajasthan Royals in One-Sided Jaipur Clash
Gujarat Titans produced a complete performance to crush Rajasthan Royals by 77 runs in IPL 2026 at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. After being asked to bat first, GT posted a massive 229/4, powered by Shubman Gill’s explosive 84 off 44 balls and Sai Sudharsan’s fluent 55 off 36. Washington Sundar then added late fireworks with an unbeaten 37 from 20 deliveries as GT crossed the 220-mark comfortably. In reply, Rajasthan Royals started aggressively through Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s 36 off 16 balls, but wickets kept falling regularly after the powerplay. Rashid Khan completely changed the game with a brilliant four-wicket haul, while Jason Holder picked up three wickets to wrap up the chase quickly. RR were eventually bowled out for 152 in 16.3 overs as Gujarat Titans climbed to second place on the points table.
