IPL 2026 Qualifier 2: Gujarat Titans vs Rajasthan Royals Preview

Chandigarh. On Friday night, as Qualifier-2 of IPL 2026 begins in New Chandigarh, two teams with many similarities but completely different philosophies will clash for a ticket to the final.

Gujarat Titans, who came after being defeated by Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Qualifier-1, and Rajasthan Royals, who defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad in the eliminator, have many similarities. Both teams are heavily reliant on their top three batsmen, both have weak middle orders, and both have sharp bowlers for the new ball. However, their approach to the game is completely different.
