In a thrilling IPL 2026 match on March 24, 2026, the Rajasthan Royals triumphed over the Royal Challengers Bengaluru by six wickets in Guwahati. Chasing a target of 202 runs, Rajasthan showcased an explosive performance, particularly from 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, who smashed a half-century off just 15 balls, hitting seven sixes at a strike rate nearing 300. His aggressive start set the tone for the match, leading the Royals to a commanding 97/1 by the end of the powerplay.

Despite losing Sooryavanshi and Shimron Hetmyer in quick succession, Dhruv Jurel's composed innings of 81 not out ensured a smooth finish for Rajasthan. On the other hand, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, after a promising start with Virat Kohli's 32 runs, struggled to maintain momentum, ultimately posting a total of 205 runs. The loss leaves Bengaluru in the upper half of the points table but raises concerns about their bowling consistency.

Following this match, Rajasthan Royals sit at the top of the IPL points table with a perfect record of four wins from four matches, while Bengaluru remains competitive but needs to address its middle-order batting issues. Upcoming matches include Punjab Kings facing Sunrisers Hyderabad and Chennai Super Kings taking on Delhi Capitals.
