The Rajasthan Royals and the Gujarat Titans will face each other in match 48 of IPL at Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. Both teams are coming off losses in their previous games. The Rajasthan Royals posted a huge total of 212 runs in their last match, but failed to defend it. The Gujarat Titans, on the other hand, restricted the Delhi Capitals to 130/8 in their previous match, but fell five runs short of the target.
As the Rajasthan Royals take on the Gujarat Titans in the 48th match of IPL 2023, it’s important to select the right all-rounders for your Dream11 team. Here are three top all-rounders to consider for the RR vs GT game.
1. Ravichandran Ashwin
Ravichandran Ashwin has been an impressive bowler for the Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2023. He has taken 13 wickets in nine matches, with an average of 20. In their last match against Mumbai Indians, where both teams scored over 200 runs, Ashwin picked up two wickets for 27 runs in his four overs. Ashwin’s experience as an off-spinner is expected to come in handy for the Royals in their upcoming match against the Gujarat Titans, especially since the pitch in Jaipur is spinner-friendly. As a result, Ashwin is likely to play a crucial role in the RR vs GT encounter.
2. Hardik Pandya
Hardik Pandya has been a valuable asset for Gujarat Titans in IPL 2023, contributing with both bat and ball. So far, he has scored 213 runs in eight matches with an average of 30.42 and a strike rate of 117.03. When it comes to facing the Rajasthan Royals, Pandya has been particularly effective, having taken ten or more wickets in IPL against only two opponents, one of which is the Royals. He has also scored over 300 runs against only two teams in IPL, and the Royals are one of them. Moreover, Pandya boasts a batting strike rate of 168.16 against the Royals, which is his second-best against all teams in the tournament. With such impressive statistics against the Royals, Pandya is undoubtedly a player to watch out for in the upcoming RR vs GT match.

3. Jason Holder
The Rajasthan Royals acquired Jason Holder for a hefty price of ₹5.75 crore at the IPL 2023 Auction, but the West Indies all-rounder has yet to make a mark in the tournament. Although he has shown glimpses of his bowling skills, he has only managed to pick up three wickets at an economy rate of 8.46. Holder’s batting has been a disappointment as well, having scored just one run in two innings. Despite his lackluster performance so far, Holder’s track record in the IPL speaks for itself, and he could still turn things around in the upcoming RR vs GT match. Therefore, fantasy cricket enthusiasts may consider backing him to come good and contribute with both bat and ball.
