TATA IPL 2025 Match 47, RR vs GT – Match Report

Rajasthan Royals (RR) delivered a spectacular performance at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, chasing down a mammoth 210-run target against Gujarat Titans (GT) in just 15.5 overs with eight wickets in hand. In this thrilling Match 47 of TATA IPL 2025, the Royals not only ended their five-match losing streak but also set a new record for the fastest successful 200+ chase in IPL history.

Gujarat Titans Set a Challenging Target

After being asked to bat first, Gujarat Titans made a strong start. Their openers, Sai Sudharsan and Shubman Gill, put together a solid 93-run partnership. Maheesh Theekshana finally broke the stand by dismissing Sudharsan for 39.

Despite the breakthrough, Gill continued to dominate, reaching his half-century off just 29 balls. He eventually fell for a well-crafted 84, once again to Theekshana. Titans briefly stumbled, losing Washington Sundar (13) and Rahul Tewatia (9) in quick succession, but a steady middle-order effort helped them post a daunting total of 209/4 after 20 overs.

Among RR’s bowlers, Maheesh Theekshana stood out with figures of 2/35, though overall, the Royals’ attack struggled to contain the flow of runs.

Rajasthan Royals’ Dream Run Chase

Chasing 210, Rajasthan Royals started in explosive fashion. Openers Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Yashasvi Jaiswal stitched together a commanding 166-run stand, dismantling the Gujarat Titans’ bowling attack from the outset.

The 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi played one of the most astonishing innings in IPL history. He smashed 28 runs off an Ishan Sharma over and took 21 runs from Washington Sundar’s first over. Vaibhav reached his half-century in just 17 balls, the fastest fifty of IPL 2025, helping Royals post their highest-ever powerplay score — 87/0.

Even Rashid Khan’s economical spells could not halt Vaibhav’s onslaught. Making his IPL debut, Karim Janat faced the brunt of Suryavanshi’s fury, conceding three sixes and three fours in a single over. Soon after, Vaibhav reached his maiden IPL century off just 35 balls, becoming the youngest IPL centurion ever and recording the second-fastest century in league history — only behind Chris Gayle’s 30-ball ton.

Records Tumble at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium

Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s extraordinary knock was packed with 7 fours and 11 sixes, leaving fans and players alike in awe. His historic innings ended at 101 runs when Prasidh Krishna bowled a perfect yorker. By then, the damage was irreversible for Gujarat.

Meanwhile, Yashasvi Jaiswal provided solid support, scoring an unbeaten 70 off 40 balls, reaching the milestone of 2000 IPL runs. After Vaibhav’s dismissal, Nitish Rana came and went quickly, but Riyan Parag joined Jaiswal and finished the chase with an aggressive 32 off just 15 balls.

The Royals successfully chased down the 210-run target with 25 balls to spare, setting a new record for the highest successful chase against Gujarat Titans, surpassing Kolkata Knight Riders’ 205-run chase in IPL 2023.

Impact on Points Table

This emphatic win pushed Rajasthan Royals to eighth place on the IPL 2025 points table, with six points from ten matches (three wins and seven losses). Gujarat Titans, despite the loss, retained the third spot with twelve points from nine matches (six wins and three losses).
