Main Players for RR in RR vs GT in Qualifier 2

(i) Top Batter: Riyan Parag (Skipper)

The moon is moving through Scorpio on match day. This is a very potent planetary signal heading into the marquee clash of his 2026 season. Moon in Scorpio brings intensity and the sort of determination that Scorpios are called for. If RR are to make it to the final, Parag will have to be at his very best.

Saturn is sitting at 11-12 degrees in Aries. This is a demanding placement for Archer’s natal chart. However, if Archer can work through the weight of Saturn, he could produce a match defining spell.

RR Skipper vs GT Skipper Kundli Comparison

Shubman Gill:-

Shubman Gill is a Virgo and Virgo’s ruling planet is Mercury. On May 29, Mercury is in Gemini, one of the signs it dictates. This is considered a strong Mercury transit, and it conveys a clear and positive energy to every Virgo native. 

For Gill as a skipper, this is sharper tactical thinking, better assessment of the game, and the ability to hold composure when things get tough. Mercury in Gemini also triggers the 10th house energy from Virgo’s point of view. 

Mars in Taurus sits in the 9th house from Gill’s Virgo chart. The activation of this house courtesy Mars on matchday brings good fortune, and the urge to keep chasing a big moment. 

Jupiter in Cancer sits in the 11th house from Virgo. Jupiter occupying this position on crunch match day is one of the most auspicious signals in a birth chart reading.

Planetary verdict: Strong Mercury, Jupiter in gains house, Mars in Fortune house. This is arguably one of the best single-day planetary combinations a Virgo skipper can desire for heading into this tie.

Riyan Parag:-

Born on the 11th day of November in the year 2001, Riyan Parag is a Scorpio Sun. The Moon is passing through Scorpio on match day, directly sitting on his natal Sun. He will feel confident, emotionally activated and highly focused. 

Jupiter in Cancer occupies the 9th house from Scorpio and Jupiter in the 9th house is one of the most positive placements in the chart reading. 

However, Mars in Taurus is at the 7th house from Scorpio. So, in terms of game, Parag is set to face stern competition from the other side. Keep in mind, this is not a bad placement, but signals a difficult time rather than an easy win. Mercury in Gemini happens to be in the 8th house from Scorpio, which can lead to overthinking and unexpected challenges while making key decisions. 

Planetary Verdict: Moon on natal Sun and Jupiter occupying the 9th house are big positives. But the placement of Mars in the opponent’s house and Mercury in the 8th house poses real challenges.  

Gill or Parag? Who has the better Kundli on match day?

Both, Gill and Parag, carry strong planetary energy. However based on our captain v/s captain analysis for this key clash, Gujarat captain holds a better planetary position on Friday, May 29. 

RR vs GT Qualifier Astrology Prediction: Who will emerge victorious?

Looking at the complete planetary picture for the day, Gujarat has the astrological edge going into this game.

For the inaugural champions, Moon in Scorpio is working in favour of Parag and we expect him to play a big knock. But the wider planetary energy on match day suggests GT.  The press by Saturn on Archer and Jupiter resisting Jaiswal’s Capricorn chart puts tremendous pressure on the two players Rajasthan need the most. 

We are backing Gujarat to win this encounter and seal a date with Bengaluru in the final.
