Gujarat Titans had a four-day gap to prepare for the IPL 2022 final after winning the first qualifier on May 24. On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals have reached their first final ever since winning the title in 2008.
The evening of the GT vs RR IPL 2022 final will be warm and clear. The temperature is expected to be around 30 to 35 degrees. There was no dew in the second qualifier and will not be any in the final as well.
