Nevertheless, weather forecasts suggest that rain could affect the crucial knockout encounter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The continuing season has already seen several rain-related disruptions, including the match between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Punjab Kings (PBKS), which was abandoned and not using a single ball being bowled. With forecasts indicating a 40 per cent likelihood of evening showers, there stays a possibility that the Qualifier 2 fixture may not produce a result.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">As per IPL regulations, the team that finished higher within the league standings gets the advantage if a playoff match is washed out. Due to this fact, if weather conditions prevent the completion of a minimum five-over contest for either side before the cut-off time, Gujarat Titans will advance on to the IPL 2026 final, where they may tackle Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span class=\"s2\">\u201cIf conditions don&#8217;t permit a Super Over, or subsequent Super Overs throughout the time available to find out the winner as described in Appendix F then the team which, at the top of the relevant regular Season, finished in the upper position within the League table (in accordance with clause 16.10 above) will likely be deemed the winner of the relevant play-off match,\u201d <span class=\"s3\">IPL 2026 Match Playing Conditions <\/span>mention.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Gujarat Titans ended the league stage in second place on the points table with 18 points, whereas Rajasthan Royals secured fourth position after accumulating 16 points.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">GT Hold Dominant 7-3 Edge Over RR in IPL Rivalry<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Shubman Gill-led Gujarat Titans have enjoyed the upper hand of their rivalry with Rajasthan Royals, having won seven of the ten matches played between the 2 sides. Each teams secured one victory each in the course of the league stage this season, with GT claiming a commanding 77-run win of their latest encounter on the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Nevertheless, Rajasthan Royals enter the competition with confidence after registering three successive victories. In contrast, Gujarat Titans head into the match after suffering a heavy defeat to defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Qualifier 1 on the HPCA Stadium in Dharamshala.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Get the most recent cricket news here, like us on <a href=\"https:\/\/m.facebook.com\/cricfitupdate?wtsid=rdr_0r9TyTtGMzhJUSzAh\">Fa<\/a><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/m.facebook.com\/cricfitupdate?wtsid=rdr_0r9TyTtGMzhJUSzAh\">cebook<\/a>, and follow us on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CricFit\">Twitter<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/cricfit?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\">Instagram <\/a> for more such updates.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 Qualifier 2 between the Gujarat Titans (GT) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) is scheduled to be played on the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur on Friday, May 29.
