RR will play GT in the 1st qualifier match on May 24 in Kolkata.

Rajasthan Royals (RR) finished on the second spot on the IPL 2022 points table after they defeated Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in their last league stage match and pushed Lucknow Super Giants to the third spot.

This meant that they will now play Gujarat Titans (GT) in the first qualifier of the IPL 15 on May 24 at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata and will have two chances to make it into the IPL 2022 finals.

However, they didn’t expect that their welcome into the ‘City of Joy’ would be this dramatic. The Royals’ flight got into severe turbulence while reaching Kolkata, which turned out to be a scary experience for all who were aboard.
