Sunday’s Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Gujarat Titans 2026 IPL Final live stream sees Virat Kohli’s reigning champions take on the Shubman Gill-led 2022 winners at the gigantic Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
It took Kohli and RCB 18 long years to capture their first IPL title and now they are favorites to make it two on the trot. After topping the league table, they then dismantled Sunday’s opponents in the qualifiers by 92 runs thanks to captain Rajat Patidar’s 93* from 33 balls followed by three wickets for Jacob Duffy. With Virat and Venkatesh Iyer at the top of the order and seamers Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Josh Hazlewood backing them up, they have the tools to win it all again.
They face a Gujarati side who will be looking for sweet revenge after the humiliating way they went down in last Tuesday’s Qualifier 1. It looked like they might be on their way out of the competition on Friday but for a superb century from super skipper Gill. In the tournament’s leading wicket-taker, Kagiso Rabada, they have a bowler who can rip a hole in any batting order, while destructive batsmen like Sai Sudharsan and Jos Buttler have destroyed many bowling units in the past.
