RCB faced a few off-field challenges. Firstly, holding the IPL matches at Chinnaswamy was not a certainty. Once that was sorted, they were forced to play a couple of home games at Raipur. And then during the tournament, the final - which traditionally is played at the home ground of the defending champions - was moved to Ahmedabad. But nothing flustered them on the field. They played like absolute champions right from the season opener. They lost just 5 matches this season but none of those losses forced them to deviate from their template. The template was set in the 2025 mega auction and they've now joined the Chennai Super Kings and the Mumbai Indians as the only teams to have won back-to-back IPL titles. They've been ruthless to the core and credit must be given to all the backroom staff involved in transforming an also-ran team into absolute champions. Can anyone stop them from becoming the first team to complete a 3-peat? Only time will tell and the 20th edition of the Indian Premier League will give all the answers in 2027. On that note, it's time to draw the curtains on the 19th season of the IPL. On behalf of MS Ramakrishnan, Abhinand Raghavendran, Raju Peethala, Harish V and Praveen Pungirthi, this is Pradeep Krishnamurthy signing off. Cheers and bye..

The Royal Challengers were strong right from the start. They began with a win against the Sunrisers at home and ended with back-to-back wins in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Barring the MI game in Raipur, all their wins were convincing. They were the first team to get the 'Q' next to their name. Their biggest loss came in the final round-robin game against SRH but they accomplished the main goal, which is to finish as the table-toppers. Finally, in the playoffs (Qualifier 1 and the Final), they brought their A-game to trounce the Titans twice. On the other hand, the Titans slipped at the start, then ran a good campaign in the middle and did enough to join the RCB in the top-2. Qualifier 1 in Dharamsala was a one-sided affair but the Titans then held their nerve to edge past the Rajasthan Royals in Mullanpur. A home final and history beckoned as Gill & Co. looked set for a 2nd IPL title, only to get ambushed once again by the ruthless force called Royal Challengers Bengaluru.

Rajat Patidar collects the IPL trophy from Mithun Manhas (BCCI president) and Devajit Saikia (BCCI secretary). As he kisses it, his team-mates run to the podium. All smiles in the RCB camp. The RCB captain waits for everyone to join and then raises the silverware. All the other RCB players jump with their arms aloft. Kohli lets out a couple a fist pumps. The confetti rains and almost every player wants to kiss and lift it. They now want the support staff to hold the trophy. Coach Andy Flower is the last one to join them and he raises it with a beaming smile on his face. Now, they all get off the podium to pose alongside the CHAMPIONS signage.

Rajat Patidar (2/2): This year, we were pretty confident because of the way we played in this tournament and everyone was in a good frame of mind. Slightly more confident as compared to last year and it was good. It was good to see fans coming to every ground wherever we went. It felt like a home ground for us. So overall it was great, great for RCB. (On his batting form and preparation) Before entering the tournament, my pre-tournament prep(aration) was very good. The way I looked at my batting, I tried to analyse where I could improve, specifically which shots I could improve on against fast bowlers. In the tournament I worked with DK and many players, including VK (Virat Kohli) Bhai. I got so many inputs, ideas, and they helped me. (On Virat Kohli’s influence in the team) whenever I see him, on the field and off the field also, he is always there for the team. He is always there for the players, especially the new players who are coming in. They have a lot of hesitation to speak, but he goes straight away and talks to them. So it was superb. (Message for the fans) So this one is for you again, RCB fans - Ee Salanu Cup Namdu (The cup is ours this time as well)

Rajat Patidar | RCB captain (1/2):(On his first reaction) I think it feels superb. When we came here, lot of memories of last year, the way we played last year. But at the same time, we have to be more in the present and we felt good. I don’t have words to express, but I’m feeling good. (On the decision to field first and RCB’s performance in the field) It was a clear plan. When we win the toss, it’s easy to chase, you know, and our plan was easy - get their top three in the powerplay, so it would be easy for us. And the way our bowlers performed throughout the tournament, not just in this match, was superb. And the way Bhuvi, Hazlewood and Rasikh - I want to mention every bowler, KP, Suyash, Sheppy - they bowled brilliantly throughout the tournament. (On his journey from 2022 to captaining RCB to back-to-back titles) To be honest, I never dreamt of being a captain and lifting a trophy for RCB. I think it was all written and I’m grateful for it. (On the difference between this season and the last season) Obviously, last year there was a lot of pressure because it was the first year of winning the title

Rajat Patidar collects the winners cheque of Rs. 20,00,00,000.

Shubman Gill | GT captain: (On what could have been a winning total) I think if we would have gotten close to 180, 190, it would have been a good match. (On whether the surface was slow or two-paced) Honestly, not that much. You know, maybe a little bit. We have seen whenever we are playing, in the first three or four overs there is a little bit of movement for the fast bowlers. We lost a couple of early wickets and then we kind of lost the momentum in the middle; we couldn’t really get going. But then we knew we are playing the finals. 150, 160, if we get a couple of early wickets in the powerplay, we are always in the game. (On not getting wickets early enough in the chase) Yeah, I think 15-20 runs too many in the powerplay. Had we restricted them to around 50-55 runs, we still would have had a chance. But I think they got away a little bit in the powerplay. (On the team’s improvement this season) I think we were one of the best bowling sides in the tournament. The way after we lost the first two games - we came back in the tournament after losing the first couple of games - the way we kept talking, kept pushing ourselves, kept challenging ourselves in different areas, and kept improving those 5 percent factors. (On the overall campaign despite the final loss) Yeah, definitely, very happy. We couldn’t get over the line, but there are always things that you could improve on. And even if we had won the trophy, there were still things that we felt as a group that we needed to work on.

The match officials collect their medallions. Shubman Gill receives the runners-up cheque of Rs. 12,50,00,000.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is the Most Valuable Player of the season: Translated from Hindi - (How does it feel to win so many awards) No sir, it feels good, but I’m feeling a little pressure because I’m here for an interview. But yes, it’s a proud moment, it feels great, and I’ll try to do even better next season. (On pressure and his fearless batting and how much milk he drinks every day) Sir, I’m not drinking milk right now (smiles). But yes, I just try to back my game. If I feel that the first ball is in my zone and I can hit it, then I go all-out and try to play that way. (On what he learnt from the season) This season, I learnt how to play in pressure situations and how to change my game according to the circumstances. You can’t play every game with the same mindset. You have to read the situation of the game and play according to what the team requires. I learned a lot about that, even in the playoff games. (On fitness and longevity) I’ll have to focus a lot on that because I want to play for a long time. I need to avoid injuries and things like that, so I’ll have to work on my fitness and focus even more going forward. (on Rajasthan Royals and the support he receives) Yes sir, everyone is very supportive and everyone there backs me. All the senior players and the support staff back me a lot, and I get to learn so much because these players have performed at a very high level. So it’s a really good environment to be in.

Virat Kohli (3/3): (On the opening partnership) Yeah, I mean, simple chat to Venky in the change room. And I just told him one thing, we need to kill the game in the power play. And he said, yeah, let’s go. So it was total clarity. There was no doubt at any stage when both of us were going. We just wanted to strike. We just wanted to take the bowlers on because we knew in a big game, if you lose a couple of wickets, things can get tricky. So never let the run rate go up to seven and a half, eight. And then we had small targets in mind. You know, when you get the score under those targets, then you can really go and play free cricket. So, yeah, credit to Venkatesh as well. He stepped in and did a beautiful job up top. And his intent was probably the difference maker for us in the last three or four games. (Message for the RCB fans) I mean, I always say we don’t have seven home games. We probably have 14 because everywhere we go, we have fans cheering the team and, you know, really getting behind us. I mean, GT is probably the home side, but you see 90 percent of the guys are RCB fans. So that’s what we’ve earned over the years and we just continue to make them proud and try to put our best foot forward. And yeah, their support is priceless and really happy that they can celebrate us lifting the trophy tonight and witness that.

Virat Kohli (2/3): (On the clarity within the group after last year’s title) Absolutely. I mean, the first target was to finish top of the table. We achieved that. And then after that, it was just about… you know, a lot of people asked us, who do you prefer in the finals? And we said, it doesn’t matter for us. We don’t care what jersey is in front of us. We are playing great cricket. We want to focus on RCB and not the other teams. And we’re going to be respectful of all the other teams. We don’t poke any other team. We’re very happy to carry on playing professional cricket. We have a lot of mature players in the group, a lot of experienced guys, and the experience always shines through in difficult situations. You can have all the excitement and slam-bang in the world, but come the big situations, you need the big boys to step up. And that’s exactly what we did. (On different players stepping up throughout the season) Absolutely. I mean, even tonight, I know it’s a chase and they probably look to get me out early, but I was very confident that even if I get out early, we have a champion team that’s going to finish the job, you know, three or four overs to go. So when you have that kind of confidence, you can go out there and really take the bowlers on. And I think that’s credit to the management, the way they stacked up the squad, the talent of the players, the belief that the players have shown. And we stand here champions back-to-back, which is a special feat. That’s exactly what Mo Bobat said when we won last year, that it’s not the end of the road. We’re going to look to go back-to-back. And that’s exactly what we ended up achieving. So we’re really proud of us as a team.

Virat Kohli | Player of the Match (1/3): (You saved the best for the last!) Well, it’s the stuff that you dream of. I’ve thought of this moment many times, that, you know, once when we win the IPL, I should be standing there hitting the winning runs and tonight it was possible. So yeah, just a dream day for us. And as I mentioned straight after the game as well, we just felt really relaxed coming to the game today and really confident about how we wanted to go about our game and what kind of team we have. And that gives you confidence to just, you know, see any kind of situation through. But yeah, in a chase, I felt really comfortable out there knowing exactly what to do. (On getting his fastest IPL fifty in his 19th season) Well, not really. I mean, such is the demand of the sport today. I mean, you have these, you know, super young players pushing you all the time and really asking you to change your game and up the ante. And it’s an exciting situation because it gives you something to improve on, something to work towards. And yeah, I just take a lot of pride in getting better and just trying to figure out areas where I can improve. So yeah, it was just a case of the demands of today’s modern game where you need to get those 20, 30 extra runs. And I had to kind of change my mindset, not my game so much to hit the shots I hit, but more often and take the bowlers on, probably the best bowlers in the opposition. That was always my target. So very happy I was able to contribute towards the team cause.

21:18 Local Time, 15:48 GMT, 21:18 IST: This is a magnificent bowling performance from the men from Bengaluru and they will believe that they can chase down this score. Coincidentally, 155 was the exact score RCB managed when these two teams last met here during the league phase. Will that chirp up the Gujarat Titans? They were asked to bat first, they were happy to bat with Shubman Gill reasoning that runs on the board in a big final could be vital. But RCB's bowlers had other ideas: they bowled short and into the pitch, hitting hard lengths and giving the batters no chance. Gill, Sai Sudharsan, Nishant Sindhu, Rahul Tewatia, Jason Holder and Rashhid Khan, all fell to short deliveries. In between, Washington Sundar fought hard, was given an early reprieve and went on to make a 37-ball 50*. Will his runs prove to be the difference? GT have a bowling attack that will like these conditions - in Rabada, Holder and probably Prasidh, they have the tall bowlers to make a difference, but they'll have to be at their best if they're to defend 155. Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar were outstanding, Rashikh was good and Krunal was outstanding in the middle overs. We will be back shortly for the run-chase..

Rasikh Salam Dar to Kagiso Rabada, 2 runs, low full-toss outside off - Rabada backs away, opens the face of the bat and then drives it to the right of long-off, comes back for the second. GT finish with 155

Rashid Khan c Romario Shepherd b Rasikh Salam Dar 7(3) [6s-1]

Rasikh Salam Dar to Rashid Khan, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

Rasikh Salam Dar to Rashid Khan, SIX, slapped, slower ball outside off and it's right in the slot - Rashid clears his front-leg and forehands the drive over long-on

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Washington Sundar, 2 runs, back of a length and just outside off - Sundar gets his left leg out of the way and drives it square past point, comes back for the second. Bhuvneshwar finishes #IPL2026 with 28 wickets, currently the joint-highest wicket-taker with KG

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Rashid Khan, 1 run, square of the wicket, fuller length delivery outside off, driven square on the off-side for a single

Rashid Khan, right handed bat, comes to the crease

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Jason Holder, out Caught by Josh Hazlewood!! A massive top-edge, Hazlewood calls for the catch and he takes it with ease. Moved to his left at short third, so did Jitesh Sharma as he ran back, but it was always the big Aussie's catch. Another short ball that climbed onto the tall right-hander, Holder was in no position on the pull - gets a fat top-edge that went straight up. Jason Holder c Josh Hazlewood b Bhuvneshwar Kumar 7(5) [4s-1]

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Jason Holder, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

Holder vs Hazlewood in T20s: 32 off 16, no dismissal, SR: 200

Only the balls that mattered: wickets, fours, sixes, fifties, hundreds and team milestones.

Washington Sundar

Rasikh Salam Dar

Jason Holder

Bhuvneshwar Kumar

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Washington Sundar, FOUR, cracking shot, the boundaries are coming now - back of a length and just outside off, Sundar stands tall and then hammers the pull wide of mid-wicket, splits the two fielders in the deep

Josh Hazlewood

Josh Hazlewood to Jason Holder, FOUR, hammered, a floaty half-volley on off, right in the slot and it's despatched by Holder - cleared his left leg and drilled it back over the bowler's head for a boundary. 16 off the over

Josh Hazlewood to Washington Sundar, wide, half-an-appeal for caught behind, it's called as a wide, but RCB heard a sound and they've reviewed, short and down leg, Sundar was looking to help it on its way with the ball. UltraEdge has a flat line and the wide will stay, RCB lose a review

Josh Hazlewood to Washington Sundar, FOUR, beautifully played, too full and at the pads - Washington Sundar gets inside the line and then flicks it past mid-wicket - the ball races away and beats the diving fielder in the deep. Kohli did get to the ball on the slide, but he pushes it back onto the ropes

Josh Hazlewood to Washington Sundar, FOUR, handy runs for Sundar - short and down leg, Sundar was looking to help it on its way, got inside the line and the bottom-hand came off, lobs over Jitesh Sharma's head and bounces away

Rahul Tewatia

Rasikh Salam Dar to Rahul Tewatia, out Caught by Rajat Patidar!! A mistimed slog and Patidar is under it at mid-on -was the slower ball outside off and Tewatia was backing himself for the big hit, but he doesn't get it anywhere near the middle of the bat, it did skew slightly on impact and lobs up towards mid-on. Patidar ran back, kept watching the ball and completes a safe catch. Rahul Tewatia c Rajat Patidar b Rasikh Salam Dar 7(5) [4s-1]

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Rahul Tewatia, FOUR, cheeky and four, banged in short and just outside off - Tewatia waits on it, uses Bhuvneshwar's pace and then runs it over the keeper's head for a boundary

Josh Hazlewood to Rahul Tewatia, 1 run, on a good length and around off, nudged in front of mid-wicket for a single

Josh Hazlewood to Arshad Khan, out Caught by Rasikh Salam Dar!! .. and Josh Hazlewood strikes straightaway - banged in short and into the pitch, it's the hard length and Arshad Khan can't get it away on the pull, gets cramped for room and the top-edge tamely lobs into the hands of Rasikh at short fine. A useful cameo, but the Titans would've hoped for more. Arshad Khan c Rasikh Salam Dar b Josh Hazlewood 15(6) [6s-2]

Jacob Duffy

Jacob Duffy to Arshad Khan, SIX, hammered, Arshad is injecting some momentum into this innings, on a good length and just outside off, was the slower ball from Duffy, but it's right in the slot - Arshad clears his front-leg and hoists it back over the bowler's head for a maximum

Jacob Duffy to Washington Sundar, FOUR, back-to-back boundaries for Sundar, short of a good length and pushed across the left-hander, drags Sundar into the drive and the thick edge flies wide of the diving keeper

Jacob Duffy to Washington Sundar, FOUR, clubbed, that's a good start to the over, short and just outside off - Sundar picks the length early, swivels across and then hammers the pull wide of mid-wicket

Krunal Pandya

Krunal Pandya to Arshad Khan, SIX, Arshad Khan hits the first six of the 2026 IPL Final! Can you believe that? RCB have been that good. Full and in the slot, Arshad Khan gets under it and whacks it over mid-wicket

Jos Buttler

Krunal Pandya to Jos Buttler, out Stumped!! Krunal Pandya is a Lion in big games. Look at him roar. He's completely spoiled all plans for GT as Buttler was looking to get them past 160 after getting set. This is the wicket of the game so far. Again great game awareness. Saw Buttler stepping out and he had his eyes locked on the batter all the time. Fired a fast wide yorker that Buttler couldn't connect and Jitesh did the rest. RCB know they will now have 20 runs less in the target. Jos Buttler st Jitesh Sharma b Krunal Pandya 19(23) [4s-1]

Jacob Duffy to Washington Sundar, no run, make that four wickets to balls bowled into the wicket. Short delivery on the leg stump, Washi tries to take on the pull shot, mistimes and taken at fine leg. Oh hang on. They are checking if the catch was clean. Replays clearly suggest Cox didn't have good control over the catch. The ball got stuck between his ring fingers on both hands. But it stayed out enough to touch the grass as he tried to complete the catch. Rajat wants to know why it was ruled not out. There was a bit of doubt real time and the replays vindicated. Washi escapes

Nishant Sindhu

Rasikh Salam Dar to Nishant Sindhu, out Caught by Devdutt Padikkal!! This is high and taken in the deep. The moment he tried to show some intent, he's picked out the fielder to perfection. The third wicket to ball bowled into the wicket now. Smart of Rasikh Salam Dar to watch the batter closely and bowl short on seeing Nishant Sindhu advance. The batter wanted to break-free, instead flat-batted it straight to DDP who is tall enough to grab it close to the rope. Nishant Sindhu c Devdutt Padikkal b Rasikh Salam Dar 20(18) [4s-3]

Krunal Pandya to Jos Buttler, 1 run, on the leg stump, Buttler wrists it to mid-wicket

Rasikh Salam Dar to Nishant Sindhu, FOUR, oh he's sprayed this down the leg-side and allowed an easy pull shot for Nishant Sindhu. The batter swivelled and helped himself with a pull with fine leg up

Josh Hazlewood to Nishant Sindhu, FOUR, oh fumble and it's burst right through Bhuvi's hands. He's livid with himself. Short of a length delivery angling away, Nishant dabs late, should have been a dot or just one run at best but it's a four

Josh Hazlewood to Nishant Sindhu, FOUR, oh in the air but safe! Short of a length delivery outside off stump, Nishant flays at it and just finds the gap at cover-point to escape the catch

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Jos Buttler, FOUR, oh rare bad ball from Bhuvi. Good length delivery on the pads, Buttler glances it fine and gets the boundary badly needed for GT

Sai Sudharsan

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Sai Sudharsan, out Caught by Jitesh Sharma!! This is high, Jitesh calls for it as he runs to his right and tracks it into his hands. Gill wears a dejected look sitting in the dugout. Do they already know their fate? Sai Sudharsan definitely wasn't expecting another bouncer from Bhuvi, especially after being called the first one for the over the previous ball. But Bhuvi backed himself to get the bumper spot on yet again. It was slightly wide of off and the batter had to fetch. Seemed like Sai didn't fully commit to the pull and just hung his bat out last second. Top edge flew towards short fine leg but Jitesh took a fine running catch. The defending champs are off to a roaring start. Sai Sudharsan c Jitesh Sharma b Bhuvneshwar Kumar 12(12) [4s-2]

Shubman Gill

Josh Hazlewood to Shubman Gill, out Caught by Rajat Patidar!! Oh this is a mishit and it's taken at mid-off. Hoff roars back in style. Short of a length delivery with some extra bounce, Shubman Gill loves to play the short-arm jab pull shot. This one gets big on him a bit (141.8kph) and he ends up slicing it high. Rajat runs to the right from mid-off and tracks this nicely into his hands. Massive blow for GT early in the final. RCB have nipped out the man who rules Ahmedabad. Shubman Gill c Rajat Patidar b Josh Hazlewood 10(8) [4s-2]

Josh Hazlewood to Shubman Gill, FOUR, Shubman Gill is continuing from where he left at this very venue in the league stages. He took Hoff for 24 runs in his first over when these two sides met last time. Now he rocks the pull shot over mid-wicket and puts pressure on the bowler straightaway

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Shubman Gill, FOUR, shot! Such a dream shot this is from Gill. Just took a step towards the bowler and forced him to bowl into the pitch, brilliant punch-drive came down towards cover and it rocketed to the fence

Jacob Duffy to Sai Sudharsan, wide, huge sigh of relief for Sai and GT! He went up straightaway for the review. Short delivery down the leg-side, Sai Sudharsan looks to pull, misses. RCB went up and ump Nitin Menon raised the finger in a flash. Sai didn't feel the impact on the bat or the glove so he reviewed and UltraEdge didn't pick up anything. It's a successful review and also a wide as the line was down leg

Jacob Duffy to Sai Sudharsan, FOUR, now he's overpitched outside off stump and it's crashed past mid-off for four more. Sai starting to look comfortable

Jacob Duffy to Sai Sudharsan, FOUR, that's a gift down the leg-side and with no leg gully in place, Sai is free to glance this fine and he didn't bother keep it down as well. Fine leg didn't even enter the frame as he was wide
