- Gujarat Titans have beaten Rajasthan Royals in each of the two meetings in the Indian Premier League (IPL) between the two sides, including the most recent matchup in Qualifier 1, which the former won by seven wickets.
- Both Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals enter the final having won three of their last four IPL games this season; even the sole loss for both teams during this span came while bowling second.
- Gujarat Titans will be the fourth team in IPL history to play a final in their home state after Mumbai Indians (2010), Chennai Super Kings (2011 and 2012) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (2016); only on one of the aforementioned four occasions did the local team go on to win the final – Chennai in 2011.
- No team has saved more runs while fielding in IPL 2022 than Rajasthan Royals – 44; Gujarat Titans are ranked joint seventh in this category with 30 runs saved while fielding.
- Gujarat Titans have scalped 26 wickets during the powerplay at a bowling average of 25 in the Indian Premier League this season, both aggregates being the best for any team during this phase of the innings; Rajasthan Royals rank second with 24 wickets during the powerplay, with their economy of 6.9 during this phase being the best such rate by any team this season.
- No team has a better batting dot ball rate during the middle overs (overs 7-16) in the ongoing Indian Premier League season than Gujarat Titans – 30%; Rajasthan Royals are ranked fifth in this category with a batting dot ball rate of 34%.
- Rajasthan Royals’ Jos Buttler has now scored four centuries in IPL 2022, thereby becoming just the second player after Virat Kohli in 2016 to record as many tons in a single edition of the competition; Buttler’s 824 runs scored this season are the third-highest by any batter in a single edition of IPL after Virat Kohli’s 973 runs in 2016 and David Warner’s 848 runs in 2016.
- Gujarat Titans’ Hardik Pandya has recorded five scores of 40 or more runs in the current Indian Premier League season, equalling the five such scores he had managed in his entire IPL career combined prior to the start of this edition; Pandya has scored 453 runs this season, his highest in any single edition of the competition.
- Rajasthan Royals’ Yuzvendra Chahal (26 wickets) needs one more scalp to overtake Wanindu Hasaranga and become the outright leading wicket-taker this IPL season; in doing so, Chahal will become only the second Indian spinner to win the Purple Cap since Pragyan Ojha did so in 2010.
- Gujarat Titans’ Rashid Khan has scalped five wickets in the ongoing Indian Premier League while pitching the ball on the off-stump line, the highest by any bowler using this line.
