RCB vs GT Live streaming: Where to watch IPL 2026 final match today?

Royal Challengers Bengaluru produced a disciplined bowling performance to put one hand on the IPL 2026 trophy, restricting Gujarat Titans to 155/8 after electing to field first in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

 

Defending champions RCB now require 156 runs from 20 overs to retain their title and become only the third franchise in IPL history to win consecutive championships.

 

GT’s innings began aggressively as Sai Sudharsan struck consecutive boundaries early, but RCB quickly wrestled back control. Josh Hazlewood removed captain Shubman Gill for 10 before Bhuvneshwar Kumar dismissed the dangerous Sai for 12, leaving GT struggling at 26/2.

 

 

Nishant Sindhu attempted to rebuild with a brisk 20, helping GT reach 45/2 at the end of the powerplay, but Rasikh Salam struck immediately after to break the stand. Jos Buttler never found momentum and managed only 19 before Krunal Pandya added another breakthrough.

 

Arshad Khan’s short cameo briefly lifted the scoring rate, but Hazlewood returned to remove him. Rahul Tewatia and Jason Holder also failed to make an impact as RCB continued tightening their grip, with Bhuvneshwar’s wicket of Holder taking him level with Kagiso Rabada as the season’s leading wicket-taker on 28.

 

Rashid Khan’s late dismissal further dented GT’s hopes before Washington Sundar played a lone hand, remaining unbeaten on 50 off 37 balls to push Gujarat to a competitive but below-par 155/8.

 

RCB now head into the chase needing 156 to successfully defend their crown.

The coin flip of the final match went in RCB's way who opted to bowl first.

 

Captain's take after toss:

 

Rajat Patidar (RCB): We'll bowl first. It's a pretty good wicket. Don't think it'll change much. Lot of memories, last year. We have to do our best to win this match. It's important to be in the present. Let's control the controllables. Always love to play at this stadium. Same team.

 

Shubman Gill (GT): We would have batted first. Typical wicket, third match we are playing here. There could be some movement for the fast bowlers in the first three overs. One of the biggest stadiums in the world. We've got one change. Arshad (Khan) comes in for Sai (Kishore).
