‘Both teams be like – Humara marzi, hum nahin jeetega’ – Fans troll Riyan Parag for asking Gujarat Titans and Sunrisers Hyderabad to help Rajasthan Royals’ playoffs qualification in IPL 2023
Rajasthan Royals need Sunrisers Hyderabad and Gujarat Titans
Rajasthan Royals’ batter Riyan Parag took some time to ask the likes of Sunrisers Hyderabad and Gujarat Titans to win their respective games. Both Titans and SRH are on two different ends of the points table. The defending champions, Gujarat has qualified for the playoffs and are on top of the table. On the other hand, the 2016 winners are in the last spot.
Talking about the Ahmedabad-based side will play their last league against Royal Challengers Bangalore on May 21. On the same day, Sunrisers will play their last game of the tournament against Mumbai Indians before the RCV v GT game. Meanwhile, Rajasthan Royals won their last league game against Punjab Kings. Notable, the 2008 winners needed to win by either 11 runs or in 18.3 overs.
However, that couldn’t happen and the team won the game with only two balls left. Meanwhile, after the game, Parag tweeted “GT and SRH please help us out a little now.” In reply, the fans are trolling the former India U19 player.
RR lost to SRH on that last ball no-ball and catapulted to 118 on Jaipur pitch against GT. Safe to say that RR gave away matches.

Rajasthan Royals need Royal Challengers Bangalore and Mumbai Indians to lose
The former champions now have 14 points after playing as many games and have finished with their league games. On the other hand, RCB and MI have 14 points each and now need a win to qualify for the playoffs. However, if the Royal Challengers lose their game against Titans by six or more runs, chasing 181, RR will go ahead of RCB in terms of NRR.
On the other hand, the Jaipur-based side also needs MI to lose their last game against SRH. The Mumbai Indians‘ NRR is negative. However, given the kind of form SRH is in, it is highly unlikely that MI will lose, especially at their Wankhede Stadium.
