The first qualifier of IPL 2022 will be played between Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals at Eden Gardens, Kolkata at 7.30 pm.
The match will be exciting as both the teams will be looking to reach the IPL final on May 29.
The Gujarat Titans under the captaincy of Hardik Pandya finished the league season as the No. 1 team.
On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals, led by Sanju Samson as the No. 2 team in the league, will start as favorites on paper.
But once the match starts, all these calculations will not be stuck at all because both the teams have great players who can win the match in their day.
But Gujarat will be concerned about Wriddhiman Saha 's minor injury as he did not play the role of wicketkeeper due to hamstring injury against Chennai Super Kings.
However, the Gujarat Titans will hope that Saha will be fit by Tuesday, as Saha's strong presence in front of and behind the wicket will help the Gujarat Titans in qualifier 1.
So let's find out what the probable first XI of Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals might look like in this match.
Wriddhiman Saha, Shubhaman Gill, Matthew Wade, Hardik Pandya, David Miller, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Rabisarinibasan, Sai Kishore, Lucky Ferguson, Yash Dayal, Mohammad Shami
Yashsvi Joyswal, Jos Butler, Sanju Samson, Devdutt Padikal, Shimron Hetmeyer, Ryan Parag, R Ashwin, Trent Bolt, Prashant Krishna, Yuzbendra Chahal, Obed McCoy
