GT vs RR at Narendra Modi Stadium: Head-to-Head, Stats & IPL Records

GT vs RR at Narendra Modi Stadium Has Become an Evenly Matched IPL Battle

The GT vs RR at Narendra Modi Stadium record tells a very different story from the overall Gujarat Titans vs Rajasthan Royals rivalry.

Gujarat Titans have generally held the advantage in the overall head-to-head, but Ahmedabad has been much more balanced. Through IPL 2026, Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals have faced each other four times at the Narendra Modi Stadium, with both teams winning two matches each.

The venue has also witnessed two completely different phases of this rivalry. The first GT vs RR match here was the low-scoring IPL 2022 final, when Rajasthan managed only 130/9. By 2025 and 2026, the same matchup was producing totals of 217/6 and 210/6.

That makes Ahmedabad one of the most interesting venues for analysing this fixture.

GT vs RR Head-to-Head at Narendra Modi Stadium

Here is the venue-specific record through IPL 2026:

Head-to-head: GT 2 – 2 RR

That 2-2 record is important because it shows why venue-specific statistics can tell a different story from the overall GT vs RR Highest Score & GT vs RR Head-to-Head Record.

Neither team has established a clear advantage over the other in Ahmedabad.

GT vs RR Results at Narendra Modi Stadium

The pattern is unusually symmetrical.

GT won in 2022 and 2025.

RR won in 2023 and 2026.

More interestingly, the four matches have produced four very different types of contests: a low-scoring final, a close chase, a one-sided GT victory and a high-scoring thriller.

Highest Score in GT vs RR at Narendra Modi Stadium

The highest team total in this venue-specific rivalry is:

Gujarat Titans – 217/6 in IPL 2025

Jos Buttler and Shahrukh Khan added 36 each, while Rahul Tewatia provided late acceleration with an unbeaten 24 from 12 balls.

Rajasthan Royals’ Highest Score vs GT in Ahmedabad

Rajasthan Royals set their Ahmedabad benchmark one season later.

In IPL 2026, RR scored:

210/6

Dhruv Jurel led the innings with 75, while Yashasvi Jaiswal also contributed a half-century.

This time, Rajasthan successfully defended the total.

Gujarat made a strong attempt at the chase, with Sai Sudharsan scoring 73 from 44 balls, but Ravi Bishnoi changed the match with a four-wicket spell.

GT eventually finished at 204/8.

Rajasthan won by only six runs.

It became RR’s highest total against GT at the Narendra Modi Stadium and also their narrowest victory over Gujarat at this venue.

GT vs RR Highest Scores at Narendra Modi Stadium

One trend is immediately visible.

The scoring ceiling has risen sharply.

The first Ahmedabad meeting produced a combined 263 runs.

In 2026, GT and RR combined for 414 runs.

Lowest Score in GT vs RR at Narendra Modi Stadium

The lowest completed team total in this fixture at Ahmedabad is:

Rajasthan Royals – 130/9 in the 2022 IPL final

It came in arguably the most important match these teams have played at the ground.

Rajasthan won the toss and chose to bat, but Gujarat’s bowlers controlled the innings.

Jos Buttler top-scored with 39, but RR never found enough momentum.

Hardik Pandya produced the defining spell:

3/17 from four overs

Rajasthan finished on 130/9.

Gujarat then chased the target in 18.1 overs, reaching 133/3.

Shubman Gill remained unbeaten on 45, while Hardik contributed 34 and David Miller finished unbeaten on 32.

GT won by seven wickets and lifted the IPL trophy in their debut season.

The 2022 IPL Final Started the Ahmedabad Rivalry

The historical importance of the first Ahmedabad meeting goes beyond the scorecard.

Gujarat Titans had only entered the IPL that season.

Yet their first GT vs RR match at the Narendra Modi Stadium was the IPL final.

Hardik Pandya’s all-round performance became the defining feature of the game.

With the ball, he took 3/17.

With the bat, he scored 34.

Gill then finished the chase with an unbeaten 45 as Gujarat became IPL champions.

It remains one of the biggest moments in the Gujarat Titans vs Rajasthan Royals Timeline.

Rajasthan Hit Back in IPL 2023

When RR returned to Ahmedabad in 2023, the match unfolded very differently.

Gujarat scored 177/7.

Shubman Gill made 45 and David Miller contributed 46.

Rajasthan’s chase then started badly.

Yashasvi Jaiswal was dismissed for one and Jos Buttler for a duck. At one stage, RR were struggling at 66/4 after 12 overs.

Sanju Samson changed the game.

He smashed 60 from 32 balls, including six sixes.

Shimron Hetmyer then completed the turnaround with an unbeaten 56 from 26 balls.

Rajasthan reached 179/7 in 19.2 overs and won by three wickets.

It was RR’s first IPL victory over Gujarat Titans.

Gujarat’s 217/6 Dominated IPL 2025

The 2025 meeting produced the first 200-plus total in the Ahmedabad chapter of this rivalry.

GT’s 217/6 was built around Sai Sudharsan’s 82.

Unlike the dramatic 2023 contest, Rajasthan never managed to create a serious chase.

Prasidh Krishna took 3/24, while Rashid Khan and Sai Kishore claimed two wickets each.

RR were bowled out for 159.

The 58-run margin remains the biggest victory by runs in GT vs RR matches at the Narendra Modi Stadium.

RR’s Six-Run Thriller in IPL 2026

The fourth Ahmedabad meeting brought the head-to-head back level.

Rajasthan posted 210/6.

Gujarat’s chase remained alive deep into the match, largely because of Sai Sudharsan’s 73.

Then came Ravi Bishnoi.

The leg-spinner returned 4/41, dismissing four GT batters and disrupting Gujarat’s middle and lower order.

Even then, the game reached the final over.

GT needed 11 runs from the last six balls.

Tushar Deshpande held his nerve, and Gujarat finished at 204/8.

RR won by six runs.

After four GT vs RR matches in Ahmedabad, the record stood at 2-2.

Most Runs: Who Has Batted Best in Ahmedabad?

One name repeatedly appears in the Ahmedabad scorecards:

Sai Sudharsan.

His two most important recent performances were:

• 82 off 53 balls in 2025
• 73 off 44 balls in 2026

That means Sudharsan produced major innings in consecutive Ahmedabad meetings, although the results were different.

His 82 helped GT win comfortably in 2025.

His 73 nearly took Gujarat to another successful result in 2026, but RR defended 210.

Other notable individual batting performances at this venue include:

Therefore, Sai Sudharsan’s 82 is the highest individual score in a GT vs RR match at the Narendra Modi Stadium through IPL 2026.

Best Bowling Figures in GT vs RR at Ahmedabad

The standout bowling performance belongs to Rajasthan’s Ravi Bishnoi.

His 4/41 in IPL 2026 is the best bowling performance in the Ahmedabad GT vs RR matchup through the 2026 season.

It surpassed several influential three-wicket performances.

The context makes all three performances significant.

Hardik’s 3/17 came in an IPL final.

Prasidh’s 3/24 helped GT defend 217.

Bishnoi’s 4/41 helped RR defend 210 in a match decided by only six runs.

Chasing vs Defending in Ahmedabad

The four results are evenly divided not only between the teams but also by the method of victory.

Successful chases:

2022 – GT chased 131
2023 – RR chased 178

Successful defences:

2025 – GT defended 217
2026 – RR defended 210

So there is no simple historical rule suggesting that batting first or chasing automatically provides the advantage in this particular matchup.

Instead, the required winning total appears to have changed significantly with conditions and seasons.

The first match was won chasing 131.

The latest was won defending 210.

That is a huge shift in scoring environment.

How Scoring Has Changed at Ahmedabad

Look at the first-innings totals chronologically:

130 → 177 → 217 → 210

That progression is one of the most useful statistical observations from this venue-specific rivalry.

The 2022 final was played on a surface where scoring was difficult.

By 2025 and 2026, both teams were operating around the 200-run mark.

This does not mean every future GT vs RR match in Ahmedabad will automatically be high-scoring. Pitch preparation, match timing, weather, team composition and tournament conditions can all change the character of a game.

But historically, the recent meetings have been substantially more productive for batters than the first Ahmedabad encounter.

Key GT vs RR Records at Narendra Modi Stadium

What Makes GT vs RR in Ahmedabad Different?

Ahmedabad does not follow that pattern.

GT have won one chase and one defence.

RR have also won one chase and one defence.

Both teams have produced a 200-plus total.

Both have also won memorable matches here.

And perhaps most importantly, Ahmedabad is where Gujarat defeated Rajasthan to win their first IPL championship.

That combination of history and competitive balance gives the venue a distinct place within the rivalry.

Four matches, two wins each—and four very different chapters in the same rivalry.
