Sooryavanshi counter-attacked effectively, reversing momentum and guiding the Royals through the Powerplay remaining unbeaten on 31 alongside Ravindra Jadeja, who made 26 not out before retiring hurt due to elbow discomfort.

Captain Riyan Parag added 11 runs before being dismissed by Jason Holder in the tenth over. The Royals' innings faced further setbacks with wickets falling regularly, including the dismissals of Dasun Shanaka and Jofra Archer, before Jadeja returned to the crease.

Sooryavanshi reached his sixth half-century of the season but was dismissed in the 18th over by Rabada for 96 runs. Ferreira then produced a rapid 38 not out, striking four sixes off the final over bowled by Rashid Khan, to boost Rajasthan Royals to their final total.

Gujarat Titans' bowlers Rabada (2 wickets for 35 runs) and Holder (2 for 27) were the most effective in restricting Rajasthan Royals.
