By Aaron Slegers , 1 June 2026

Virat Kohli delivered a captain's knock of unbeaten 75 as Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) defeated Gujarat Titans by five wickets in the IPL 2026 final, securing their second consecutive Indian Premier League title.

RCB's bowlers laid the foundation for victory by restricting Gujarat Titans to 155/8 in the summit clash in Ahmedabad. Chasing a target of 156, Bengaluru comfortably reached the mark with 12 balls remaining, thanks largely to Kohli's brilliant innings.
