Why is Shubman Gill not playing vs Rajasthan Royals?

Gujarat Titans missed captain Shubman Gill due to a muscle spasm, with Rashid Khan leading in his absence. Rajasthan Royals, led by Riyan Parag, chose to bat first on a high-scoring pitch. While Rajasthan entered with momentum, Gujarat aimed to recover from a poor start, with added pressure on their batting lineup without Gill.
