RCB Seize Control of IPL Final with Disciplined Bowling Display

Royal Challengers Bengaluru produced an impressive bowling performance to restrict Gujarat Titans to 155/8 in the IPL 2026 Final at the Narendra Modi Stadium. After being asked to bat, Gujarat struggled to build momentum as RCB bowlers struck at regular intervals. Despite wickets falling at the other end, Washington Sundar played a fighting knock and emerged as the top scorer with a crucial half-century, helping Gujarat post a competitive total on the board.

RCB’s bowling attack was led by Rasikh Salam Dar, who claimed three important wickets and put the Gujarat batting unit under pressure. Experienced pacers Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Josh Hazlewood also made significant contributions, picking up two wickets each. Chasing a target of 156 runs, Bengaluru will now look to capitalize on the momentum and move one step closer to lifting the IPL 2026 trophy.
