Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) made history by reaching the IPL 2026 final after a dominant 92-run victory over Gujarat Titans in Dharamsala. Captain Rajat Patidar was the standout performer, scoring an impressive 93 runs off just 33 balls, helping RCB set a formidable total of 254/5. In response, Gujarat Titans faltered, collapsing to 162 all out in 19.3 overs. This win not only secures RCB a place in the final but also marks the second-largest victory margin in IPL playoff history, surpassing the previous record held by Chennai Super Kings. RCB capitalized on missed opportunities, as Gujarat's bowlers dropped two crucial catches off Patidar's batting. Despite a valiant effort from Rahul Tewatia, who scored 68 runs, the Titans could not recover from an early batting collapse that left them at 51/5. RCB's innings featured significant contributions from Virat Kohli and Krunal Pandya, both scoring 43 runs, setting a solid foundation for their impressive total.
