Rajasthan faced Gujarat in their last match, where Gujarat was batting first, and yet again, their top-order scored all the runs for the team. Gill and Buttler scored fifties and posted a target of 210. The second saw a storm of runs as the 14-year-old Suryavanshi smashed a record-breaking 35-ball ton and pushed the team for an easy win by eight wickets.

Mumbai played Lucknow in their previous encounter, where Mumbai was asked to bat first. Half-centuries from Ryan Rickleton and Suryakumar Yadav paved the way for the team to reach a total of 215 runs. Nicholas Pooran gave a little scare with his aggressive approach, but was soon dismissed, and Lucknow was never in the game thereafter. Mumbai won the game easily by 54 runs.

The Sawai Mansingh Stadium field provides a fair game of bat and ball. Due to increased scoreboard pressure in the second innings, the spinners are in the game during the middle overs because of the long mid-wicket boundaries. The surface guarantees a competitive game all the way through with an average of 28.38 runs per wicket and a strike rate of 20.93.
