Today’s big IPL 2025 match is between Gujarat Titans (GT) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. The match will start at 7:30 PM IST on Wednesday, April 9.
GT captain Shubman Gill is in good form and plays a key role at the top. But one bowler who has always troubled him is RR’s fast bowler Jofra Archer.

What Do These Numbers Show?
- Shubman Gill has scored only 16 runs from 19 balls against Jofra Archer in IPL history.
- Archer has got him out 3 time and kept him very quiet.
- Gill’s strike rate is just 84.2, which is quite low for a top-order batter.
- He has hit only two four and no sixes against Archer so far.
What Can Happen Today?
This battle will be very important in tonight’s match. Gill opens the batting for Gujarat, and Archer usually bowls in the powerplay.
If Archer gets Gill out early again, it will be a big boost for Rajasthan Royals. But if Gill survives Archer’s spell, he can score big runs and lead GT to a strong total.
Expert View – Who Has the Upper Hand?
Right now, Jofra Archer clearly has the upper hand. He has dismissed Gill twice and kept him from scoring freely.
But Gill is in good form this season, and if he plays carefully, he can turn the stats in his favor today.
