How Statz Rating works:
- Each player receives a contextual match impact score based on their all-round contribution — batting, bowling, and situational factors.
- Ratings are scaled against the season benchmark so they are directly comparable across fixtures and to the season leaderboard.
- A typical top performer scores around 100. Exceptional performances can exceed 100.

Gujarat Titans were sent in and immediately made Rajasthan Royals regret it.

Turning Point
Rajasthan needed 230 and were still in it – just – at 87/3 after Dhruv Jurel’s explosive 24 off 10. Then Rashid Khan bowled him for 24 in the 7th over at 87/4. That was the wicket that broke the chase. From 87/4, Rajasthan lost their last 6 wickets for 65 runs. Rashid took 3 more after that wicket, and Jason Holder cleaned up the tail.
