11:26 IST:Six from David Miller and this is now looking quite easy for Gujarat Titans. Miller, along with Shubman Gill, has taken the pressure well and after 16 overs, GT are 109 for the loss of three wickets.

11:14 IST: What a wicket! An absolute ripper from Yuzvendra Chahal and Hardik Pandya is caught in the slips for 34. The ball turned a bit too much from outside the leg stump and the edge was caught by Yashasvi Jaiswal. GT 86/3 from 13.2 overs.

10:45 IST:7 overs gone, and Gujarat Titans are 35 for the loss of two wickets. This is good news for Rajasthan Royals as GT batsmen are finding it quite difficult to score runs and another wicket can be problematic for the debutants. GT 35/2 after 7.2 overs

10:38 IST: This has been a slow start for Gujarat Titans and although the target is not that big, dots can increase the pressure on the chasing side. 6 overs gone and GT need 100 runs to win from 84 balls. GT 31/2

10 IST:At the mid-innings break, RR end at 130-9. Clearly, GT on top and firm favourites to win as the track doesn't seem to be ideal for only 130 runs in 20 overs. Hardik's three-fer and Sai Kishore's 2 for 20 dented RR's flow as they now have a herculean task to defend this below-par total. Will Trent Boult-Yuzvendra Chahal and the likes rise up to the occasion?

9:10 IST:More trouble for RR. Buttler knicks one and goes for a 35-ball 39 as captain Hardik strikes again. Will Shimron Hetmyer rescue Rajasthan and take them to beyond the 155-run mark?

9:05 IST:Good captaincy from Hardik and Rashid responds with a wicket. He removes a struggling Devdutt Padikkal for a 10-ball 2. The youngster was struggling in the middle and has been removed as the past few overs have been a great passage for them.

8:59 IST: Mohammed Shami taken to the cleaners by Buttler in the 10th over.

8:50 PM IST:Skipper Hardik Pandya takes the ball for Gujarat Titans and strikes in his very first over. Wicket! Samson c Sai Kishore b Hardik Pandya 14(11).

8:21 PM IST: Wicket! Yash Dayal has drawn the first blood for Gujarat Titans in the 4th over. RR opener Yashasvi Jaiswal has been caught by Sai Kishore on the final ball of the 4th over. Jaiswal goes for 22 off 16 balls. 10 runs came off the 4th over. RR - 31/1 after 4 overs

8:18 IST:Jaiswal has taken on the GT attack. He is using the pace and bounce, on a lively wicket, and making full utilisation of the powerplays. Jos Buttler, on the other hand, hasn't joined the party yet.
