IPL 2026 Final: RCB vs GT Playing 11, live toss and match time, streaming

GT, who are playing their third final in the last five years, will have the chance to become the fourth-most successful franchise in the tournament after CSK, MI and KKR if they beat RCB on Sunday

Gujarat Titans (GT) are all set to host defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the final match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday, May 31, with both teams looking to win their second IPL title.

 

Rajat Patidar-led RCB will be chasing history, as if they win the final against GT, they will become the third team after Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Mumbai Indians (MI) to successfully defend their IPL title.

 

On the other hand, GT, who are playing their third final in the last five years, will have the chance to become the fourth-most successful franchise in the tournament after CSK, MI and KKR.

 

 

RCB, after their dominant win over GT in Qualifier 1, will walk into the title clash with confidence on their side, especially after they broke the record for the highest total ever posted in an IPL playoff game with their 254 against GT.

 

Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, Devdutt Padikkal and Venkatesh Iyer have been superb with the bat, while the pace trio of Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Rasikh Salam and Josh Hazlewood will be ready to create their magic and help RCB defend their title.

 

On the other hand, GT will have momentum of their own. While RCB posted the biggest IPL playoff total, the Shubman Gill-led side broke the record for the highest successful chase by chasing down 215 against RR in Qualifier 2.

 

GT have also had their top order and bowling attack producing match-winning performances consistently. However, GT’s middle order is still off colour. If they manage to stand up for their side in the biggest match of the season, GT will have the chance to win their second title.
