RCB registered a five-wicket win in the IPL 2026 final as they beat the Gujarat Titans at their own home ground in Ahmedabad to make it two trophies in a row.

As with all things RCB, Virat Kohli was once again front and centre of proceedings, at least in the second innings.
From there, GT never found a real way to recover from the early shock. Nishant Sindhu's surprise promotion did not go to plan, and even Jos Buttler could not rescue the sinking ship.
RCB went after the low target with all their guns blazing. Venkatesh Iyer and Virat Kohli put up 62 runs in just 4-and-a-half over for their opening partnership.
