Gujarat Titans Beat Rajasthan Royals in Qualifier 1 to Reach IPL 2022 Final
Gujarat Titans continued their strong run in the IPL 2022 season by defeating Rajasthan Royals in the first Qualifier to secure their place in the tournament finals. Chasing a target of 190 runs, Gujarat Titans completed the chase with three balls to spare.
The playoff match took place at Eden Gardens in Kolkata, where players encountered challenging weather conditions. The venue experienced thundershowers and a wet outfield prior to the game. Additionally, the sultry weather conditions made it difficult for bowlers to find a grip on the wicket, giving an advantage to the team batting second.
Rajasthan Royals to Await Second Opportunity
Despite the defeat, Rajasthan Royals remain in contention for the tournament. Under the playoff format, they will receive a second opportunity to reach the final. Rajasthan Royals are scheduled to play the winner of the eliminator match between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants to decide the second finalist.
