Gujarat Titans registered a convincing four-wicket victory over Royal Challengers Bangalore at the Narendra Modi Stadium, marking their fifth win of the season. Opting to bowl first after winning the toss, skipper Shubman Gill saw his bowlers dismantle RCB for 155 in 19.2 overs. Despite a fighting 40 from Devdutt Padikkal and a quick 28 by Virat Kohli, RCB struggled to build partnerships against disciplined bowling led by Arshad Khan, Rashid Khan, and Jason Holder.
Chasing 156, Gujarat got off to a blistering start with Shubman Gill smashing 43 off just 18 balls. Jos Buttler continued the momentum with a quickfire 39, while contributions from Rahul Tewatia and Rashid Khan ensured the chase stayed on track. Despite a brief middle-order wobble, Gujarat comfortably reached the target in 15.5 overs, finishing with four wickets in hand.
For RCB, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Romario Shepherd picked up crucial wickets but couldn’t stop Gujarat’s momentum. Jason Holder was named Player of the Match for his impactful all-round performance. The result marks RCB’s third defeat of the season, raising concerns over their inconsistent batting, while Gujarat Titans continue to strengthen their position in the tournament.
