IPL 2026: Shubman Gill’s 43 Sets Up Easy Chase As GT Beat RCB By 4 Wickets
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Skipper Shubman Gill led from the front and scored 43 runs off just 18 balls as Gujarat Titans (GT) chased down a modest 156-run target in just 15.5 overs while losing six wickets against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in Match 42 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Thursday.
Chasing a modest target, the Gujarat Titans got off to a flying start, led by their captain, Shubman Gill. He began aggressively, smashing a four and a six off Bhuvneshwar Kumar in the opening over. Gill continued his assault in the next over, taking on Josh Hazlewood with three fours and two sixes, helping GT race to 36 without loss after just two overs.
At the other end, Sai Sudharsan showed intent with a boundary but was dismissed in the same over by Bhuvneshwar, managing only six runs. RCB had a chance to strike again soon after, but Jitesh Sharma dropped a crucial catch to give Jos Buttler a lifeline.
