Rajasthan fought against Gujarat in their last game, where Gujarat batters were invited to bat first. Sai Sudharsan was brilliant yet again, and his knock of 82 led the team to a total of 217. Rajasthan were truly never in the chase as they just kept on losing wickets regularly and were bundled together for just 159, losing the game by 58 runs.

Bengaluru played against Delhi in the previous match, where Bengaluru was sent to bat first, and they had an explosive start from Salt. Once they lost his wicket in a run-out confusion, things went south for them, and they could only score 163. Delhi, in reply, lost early wickets, but a masterclass from Rahul showed he is here to dominate and got his team a comfortable win by six wickets.

The stadium's pitch is bowling-friendly, favoring spin and speed. In the history of the IPL, very few teams have ever reached the 200-mark in this stadium, and just one batsman has ever reached 100. Additionally, the stadium's boundaries are larger than those of most Indian stadiums.

Since the surface always offers something for the pacers in the opening few overs, the team that wins the toss is expected to bowl first. Additionally, because of the large boundaries, spinners enter the game in the middle overs.
