All eyes were once again on Virat Kohli who smashed 81 runs in the M Chinnaswamy against Gujarat in their last encounter, negating Sai Sudharsan’s 100 runs in the first innings for the Shubman Gill-led side. Devdutt Padikkal also starred with a blistering 55 for RCB as they made short work of GT’s 205-run target.

The last time RCB came to this stadium was in the last year’s IPL where they finally broke their trophy jinx, defeating Punjab Kings in the final to win their maiden title. With Kohli and co looking in imperious form, they’ll hope to prevent an upset at the same stadium tonight.

GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Gujarat Titans beat Royal Challengers Bengaluru by four wickets

Gujarat has eventually got there. They did by four wickets, but it is the number of overs in which they have completed that is what mattered. This will give them a good bump to their Net Run Rate. As per RCB, it is a bitter pill to swallow, but games like these do tend to happen through the course of the tournament. That's it from us. Do join us tomorrow for our next game.

Apr 30, 2026 10:58 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Holder falls

Gujarat Titans have lost another wicket here, and it is Jason Holder this time. He tried to smack the ball on the leg-side and was caught on the boundary. Although Bengaluru are probably going to lose this game, they did give a pretty good performance with their bowling. Bhuvneshwar Kumar has been in superb form.

Apr 30, 2026 10:49 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: explosive start

It is the work done in the initial power play that has borne fruit for the Titans. Shubman Gill has always kept Bengaluru at arm's length in their defence, though they have managed to pick up wickets regularly. But the criteria for Titans, though, would be to finish this game early.

Apr 30, 2026 10:38 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Sundar falls

Shepherd picks Washington Sundar, the batter tried to play on the leg side and missed it and was trapped in front. The decision was sent upstairs, and there were three reds, and the decision was overturned. Holder is the new man in. It should have been an easy chase for the Titans, but they are stuttering a bit.

Apr 30, 2026 10:30 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Shahrukh Khan falls

Shah Rukh Khan has fallen here. Shepherd has picked up the wicket. It was a golden opportunity for Khan to score some runs and show what he has got, but it did not happen. Rahul Tewatia is the new batter in. GT could have sent in Holder, but it seems like they want to give an opportunity to batters they have not fired this season yet.

Apr 30, 2026 10:19 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Buttler falls

Bhuvneshwar picked up the wicket of Jos Buttler here. That is a superb yorker. Bengaluru have picked up all the top three wickets now, and can they create some panic by picking a couple more wickets here? The middle order of GT has been quite vulnerable; it is going to be an interesting challenge.

Apr 30, 2026 10:09 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Gill superb start

Although the Royal Challengers Bengaluru have managed to pick a couple of wickets, the Gujarat Titans had a very good power play. Shubman Gill, with his quick-fire knock, killed this chase. Now the onus is on Jos Buttler and Washington Sundar to complete this game as quickly as they can to improve their Net Run Rate.

Apr 30, 2026 09:59 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Gill falls

While Bhuvnshwar Kumar has bowled quite well, Josh Hazlewood has been conceding too many runs. As we update, Bhuvneshwar Kumar picked up his second wicket, and it is Shubman Gill. The batter charged down the track and tried to slam it through the covers, and Kohli caught the catch.

Apr 30, 2026 09:49 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Sai Sudharsan falls

Bhuveshwar Kumar has picked up Sai Sudharsan. The ball moved away from the southpaw, and he edged it. And it is a brilliant catch from Jitesh Sharma. Well, although runs are coming, RCB bowlers are getting swing and they can exploit it. Jos Buttler is the new batter in.

Apr 30, 2026 09:39 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Gill starts well

That was a brilliant first over from Bhuvneshwar Kumar. There is swing, and Gill's bat has gotten beaten a few times, and Gill too played some sublime shots. This is the phase RCB needs to get hold of. If GT does not lose more than two wickets in this power play, they will win it quite easily.

GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: What did Jason Holder say during break

(Did you carry a magnet in your pocket because wherever you went, the ball followed you?) The ball followed me around, I'm just happy that I held on to every single chance that came my way. I thought the energy in the field today was outstanding. It's something that we would have spoken about in the dressing room, but just credit to the boys who came out with their energy today. (What was your bowling plan?) I think there's always something in the wicket here on the red soil. And so my thing is just to hit a good length, not to be too short or too full and just try to extract as much bounce as I possibly can with my length. So just get in a good area and just make it uncomfortable for the bats to hit me off a good length. (Talk us through that catch) For me, I just committed to it. And when I first went to the area, it was trying to just sight down and pick it up. But after I picked it up, I realized it was a chance, and just thankfully we didn't collide. But for me, I wasn't going to pull out of it. And I just wanted to make sure that one of us got to it and gave a good effort. KG is a big bowler and he's a big player. And for me, it's just related message to him that, he did play some really good shots. I think if he held his length and continued to hit the wicket as hard as he possibly can, you know, he was able to extract that bounce, so we just got the better of Virat. It was a good shot delivery. And we always knew, we always knew that we could take it for us up front. You know, even although the first over probably didn't go according to plan, he was able to come back and bowl the next and second over, which got us back into the game. (As a bowling unit, you'll be mighty thrilled with this because everyone contributed today?) Yeah, 100%. You know, it was a total team effort. I just really want to commend the boys on the energy in the field. It's something that we really spoke about over the last couple of games that we've played. We probably let ourselves down in the field. So to see the energy that we came up to here today with, it's just outstanding for the boys.

GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Royal Challengers Bengaluru 155/10 vs Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad

155 is all that the Royal Challengers Bengaluru have got. It will be extremely hard to defend, especially against the side whose bread and butter is chases like this. They will be comfortable in that mid-innings break knowing one of Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, or Jos Buttler is getting a 70 or 80. Do stay with us, we will be right back.

Apr 30, 2026 09:13 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Another one down

150 comes up for RCB. Bhuvenshwar Kumar is playing a nice hand here. They are getting some sort of total here. But it is one of the trickiest venues to defend in the second innings if there is dew. As we update, Arshad Khan has picked up the third wicket in Venkatesh Iyer here.

Apr 30, 2026 09:06 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Welcome boundary

Superb bowling attack from Titans here. Venkatesh Iyer, since walking in, has not been able to get his innings going. Bhuvneshwar Kumar has come into the middle, and he smashed a boundary through the point. That is a welcome boundary for RCB.

Apr 30, 2026 08:57 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Decent wicket

It was not a bad wicket to bat on, but the Royal Challengers Bengaluru kept losing wickets at regular intervals, hence the current predicament. Regardless of how strong a bowling attack RCB has, they will need to get 170 for them to give a fighting chance, which is looking very far.

Apr 30, 2026 08:46 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Inside edge

Padikkal is the last man to fall, trying to push Rashid Khan's ball he got the inside edge onto the stumps. As we update Shepherd to have fallen here. Poor shot selection from the West Indian RCB has sent the impact sub in Venkatesh Iyer to keep some partnership going, and Shephard played that poor shot.

Apr 30, 2026 08:36 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Pandya falls

Krunal Pandya has fallen here. Arshad Khan is the wicket-taker Royal Challengers Bengaluru have lost six wickets now. Devdutt Padikkal is fighting the lone hand in the middle. Romario Shepherd has walked into the middle will be interesting to see his approach.

Apr 30, 2026 08:26 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Collapse

RCB is continuing to collapse here. Tim David is the new batter who has fallen here. Rashid Khan is the wicket-taker. The ball was pitched up, and the batter tried to whack the ball on the leg-side and got holed out. RCB has lost five quick wickets here and are looking down the barell at the moment.

Apr 30, 2026 08:18 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Two more wickets

Two wickets have fallen since our last update. First, it was Patidar, the catch seemed a bit controversial but was given out by the umpire, and then it was Jitesh Sharma against Holder, who flapped his bat outside the off-stump. Gujarat Titans keep chipping wickets away here in the middle.

Apr 30, 2026 08:06 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Good partnership

Good partnership between Padikkal and Patidar in the middle here. Since tagging together, they have played some crisp shots are keeping up the tempo. Shubman Gill has made the bowling change here, bringing in Jason Holder into the attack. His style of bowling will suit this wicket.

Apr 30, 2026 07:56 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Kohli falls

Kagiso Rabada delivered a bumper to Virat Kohli, which the batter pulled and was taken just at the circle. This is the strength of GT; no matter the firepower of the opposition, they have wicket-taking pacers in their line-up who have kept delivering through the campaign.

Apr 30, 2026 07:46 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Bethall falls

Jacob Bethell has fallen here. The batter tried to hit the ball into the leg-side and got the bottom edge and went straight to the fielder against Mohammed Siraj. Royal Challengers Bengaluru has lost its first wicket. Devdutt Padikkal is the new batter who has walked in.

Apr 30, 2026 07:36 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Swing early on

We are done with the opening over here. There was a bit of swing on offer for Mohammed Siraj, but both the Royal Challengers Bengaluru openers dealt with it well. Jacob Bethell of the final played a sublime cover drive to the boundary. Good start for RCB to start with.

Apr 30, 2026 07:29 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Let's go!

The umpires are coming out to the middle. The ground here is buzzing. Last time these two sides met, Sai Sudharsan scored a century, which was not enough for RCB to win. What will GT bowling bring to the table? They have one of the fiercest pace attacks in the tournament.

Apr 30, 2026 07:18 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Cricket Score: What did Rajat Patidar say?

Obviously, we were looking to field first, but to be honest, I think in an IPL, I think there are good wickets to bat on. But I think it's a green surface with nicely grass cover on it. But I don't think it will help too much, it will be good to bat on. And so we'll put a good total on the board and give them under pressure. I think the way we are playing, the way we played first off of this IPL, I think that was very good to see. As I said, every player came and stood up for the team and done it for the team. (Every game you see someone new stepping up. That's always a good sign?) Definitely. It's a positive sign for us. And as a captain and as a team, if you look at it, different players coming in in the different match, I think it's a positive sign and we are looking forward for it. Same team.

Apr 30, 2026 07:14 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Cricket Score: What did Shubman Gill say at toss

We are going to bowl first. Looks a little dry, a little patchy. The first four or five overs can give us a bit of swing in the first innings and just in case if there's any dew, we always like to chase it. Very important two points are this for you. Yes, we have got,the next two games, including this one at home. So I think these two games are gonna determine where we stand and how far we go in the tournament. So the boys are ready to go. They are the defending champions. They've been playing some really good cricket. So hopefully it's going to be a one heck of a game. I think after the last match, the mood is pretty nice, nice and breezy, nice and light. And I think it's all about, giving everything that you have, having the right attitude and putting in as much effort as you can. We're going with the same team.

GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Cricket Score: Adams on Hazlewood's lenghts

He has probably the hardest length of all three bowlers to hit," Adams told this paper — all three being Hazlewood, Starc, and Cummins, the Australian pace trinity that has defined Test cricket for a decade. In T20, of the three, only Hazlewood's economy rate suggests he was built for it.

Apr 30, 2026 06:46 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Cricket Score: Hazlewood vs Bumrah

The numbers now reflect what the eye had been seeing for some time. In four IPL seasons, Hazlewood has taken 45 wickets in 27 games. Jasprit Bumrah has eight more, but across twelve additional matches. Hazlewood's strike rate of 18.64 is better than Bumrah's across this period, and better than any fast bowler with 40 or more wickets in the same span. His economy of 8.43 is third on that list, behind only Bumrah and Trent Boult.

Apr 30, 2026 06:34 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Cricket Score: What makes Josh Hazlewood good

Hazlewood sits in the late 130s, touching the early 140s when, as Adams puts it, "he's really excited." What he brings instead of raw pace is something harder to manufacture — natural bounce from a good length, the ability to move it both ways off the seam, and an armoury of variations that even the batsman at the crease struggles to read in time.

It wasn't always this complete. At Chennai Super Kings, he was primarily a new-ball operator. It worked — eleven wickets in nine games, a crucial role in CSK's 2021 title. But when he moved to RCB and Chinnaswamy, he had to adapt. The older ball. The death overs. New weapons required. "He really enjoys the challenge of working on something new and getting better. When you mix up a good slow ball, a good yorker, with his natural pace and length, that's pretty challenging," Adams told this paper.

Apr 30, 2026 06:24 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Cricket Score: Josh Hazlewood's deception

When I was here, they talked about him being the most underrated bowler and the most accurate bowler," he told this paper. Underrated was right. But the reasoning behind it was wrong.

Adams laid out the pace-economy argument plainly. "If you look at the super-fast bowlers, they tend to have quite high economy rates in T20 cricket. Once you get into the 140s and towards the later edge of the 140s, that's where your economy rate goes up. An outside edge where you've defeated the batsman goes for four or six. If you're a bit slower, that carries to third man and it's a wicket.”

Apr 30, 2026 06:14 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Cricket Score: Josh Hazlewood's deception

Andre Adams has a simple explanation for why Hazlewood works in T20 cricket, even when conventional wisdom said he shouldn’t.

"He's not super fast. But he's fast enough.”

For years, that was the issue. While Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins drew headline contracts, Hazlewood waited. He wasn't express pace, went the logic. Too predictable in his lengths for a format built on variation. Adams, who worked with him at New South Wales from 2018 to 2023, saw it differently. Underrated, yes — but misunderstood.

Apr 30, 2026 06:09 PM IST
GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Cricket Score: Josh Hazlewood's deception

The grip suggested a slower ball. The loading suggested a slower ball. Nicholas Pooran, one of the most destructive left-handers in T20 cricket, read it as the slower ball. The ball arrived at 140.6 kmph. Pooran was late.

It was Wednesday night at Chinnaswamy. Hazlewood had just taken his first wicket of IPL 2026 — on his return from injury, in front of a crowd that knows him well. He had already forced Rishabh Pant off, retired hurt, after striking his right elbow with a sharp lifter. The delivery that dismissed Pooran explained everything: why he is central to RCB's title defence — and why the IPL took so long to fully value him.

“Yeah, I think we've just picked up from where we left off last year. I felt like, in particular in our away games, we summed up conditions nicely, nice and quickly, whether we batted or bowled first, and adapted our games accordingly. So we really went on a bit of a streak towards the back-end of last year and it feels like we're sort of hitting our straps now at the right time of the tournament, I think,” the Australian said.

“Not by talking a lot, but by observing each other, observing great bowlers like Wasim (Akram) bhai or Zak (Zaheer Khan) or Ash (Nehra) bhai, and talking about little things that, in the end, made huge differences. Of course we had coaches and seniors, but a lot of the learning we did it ourselves,” he adds.

It’s easy when you apply your brain and figure things out by yourself. The things you grasp on your own stay in your mind. You try, you fail, the lessons stay with you,” he says. Like, if he moved the bowling arm away from the ear, the ball would swing away. If it hit his ear, it would nip into the right hander.

"I had a natural in-swinger when I was young. I kept on bowling it in the nets and one day, I swung the ball the other way.

Then I figured out what I was doing differently, and you become your own analyst and critic,” he said.

GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Cricket Score: Sanjay Manjrekar on Virat Kohli

This 150 strike-rate was 125-130 three to four years back. It was only because Virat Kohli would hit a boundary and then pick up a one or a two. After all, he wanted to extend his innings and play longer because he felt he had to be the man to bat for most of the innings and didn’t trust the batters down the order," Manjrekar said.

“This is, again, going to rile up Virat Kohli fans. We have seen Virat Kohli bat differently, bat superbly this season – at a strike rate of 140-150. This is the same Virat Kohli; there is nothing that has changed,” said Manjrekar to Sportstar.

“It is only that he has decided that he is going to bat quicker. And why has he decided that? Because he could see the pressure building and people talking about him batting a little too slowly," he added.

So we try and give them as much (time) as possible.

"Obviously things came together so quickly and so well that the game was over in the blink of an eye. So it was great to watch those two great bowlers bowl, Bhuvneshwar and Hazlewood, and then obviously we had an easy small chase so the game was over quite quickly. And I think, to be honest, you've got to treat the wins and losses with a fair degree of equanimity because with losses you don't want to get too down and the same principles apply to wins. So I don't think it's a huge challenge, to be honest."

GT vs RCB IPL 2026 Live Score: Hello and welcome

Royal Challengers Bengaluru will look to take advantage of Punjab Kings' slip up and pip themselves over the Shreyas Iyer-led outfit to go on top of the points table with a win over Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. This is the same stadium where RCB won their maiden IPL title last year and they'll hope to continue their run wwhen the face the Titans tonight. Follow our blog for live score and updates.

Delhi’s lineup was not full of slouches. It included India’s Test opener, India’s T20 vice-captain, an IPL veteran, an established all-format middle-order South African enforcer, and two promising batting talents the franchise has been hyping. (Express Photo by Praveen Khanna)

The fall of batsmanship, the resurgence of classical pacers: Delhi Capitals’ collapse against RCB says it all

Those that inevitably cry foul at the fall of Indian Test cricket after more disappointment – two whitewashes at home within a year signal that the fall has already begun – must be shown the powerplay overs of Delhi Capitals’ innings against Royal Challengers Bengaluru on Monday.

On the 19th ball of the innings, Nitish Rana pulled out what is almost certain to be the most novel of all of his shots of this IPL season. Josh Hazlewood sent down a snorter, landing just on the back of a length from around the wicket and threatening the edge, and Rana – IPL veteran, alleged T20 marauder – lifted his bat, content to see it pass by him.
