IPL 2026: It Was A Good Toss To Lose, Knew It Wouldnt Be Easy For GT To Win, Says Bhuvneshwar

Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium: Veteran seamer Bhuvneshwar Kumar credited Royal Challengers Bengalurus tactical clarity and bowling discipline, stating that he and his teammates believed that it was a good toss to lose, as the defending champions stormed into their second successive IPL final with a crushing 92-run victory over Gujarat Titans in Qualifier 1 at Dharamshala. RCB piled up a record playoff total of 254/5, powered by captain Rajat Patidars unbeaten 93 off 39 balls, before bowling Gujarat out for 162 to seal a dominant win on Tuesday. Interestingly, Bhuvneshwar revealed that several RCB players actually viewed losing the toss as an advantage on what appeared to be a batting-friendly surface at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium. Generally, if you lose the toss on a ground like this, the morale can be down because it's a good batting wicket, the ball travels and the dew is a factor here. But after the toss, there were four to five players, including me, who thought it was a good toss to lose because on a flat wicket like this, if you put up a big score, the opposition will have to bat really well to chase it down. And with the way we have been bowling and executing, we knew it wouldn't be easy for them, Bhuvneshwar told JioStar. That confidence quickly translated onto the field. RCBs bowlers dismantled Gujarats chase with relentless accuracy after the batting unit had already seized control of the contest. Bhuvneshwar himself removed Gujarat skipper Shubman Gill cheaply before later ending Rahul Tewatias resistance with a slower ball. The experienced pacer also shed light on one of RCBs major bowling strategies this season, the extensive use of scramble seam deliveries. According to Bhuvneshwar, the approach has been a carefully calculated response to modern batting conditions rather than a random variation. We've used the scramble seam a lot, looking at the wickets and conditions, and it's not just me, Josh Hazlewood, Duffy, all of them have done it. When GT bowled, we saw that there wasn't much swing there. A lot of planning goes into it, when to use it, it's not random, and it depends on how the wicket is behaving. When there's a bit of seam or swing in the first six, I try to extract that and try something that will be difficult for batters to hit. So, it's about being proactive, like batters are these days. If it's a slow wicket, where the ball might stop on the surface, I may use the knuckle ball sometimes, but mostly it's the scramble seam, considering the wicket and conditions, the pacer added. RCBs bowling attack once again justified that planning against Gujarat, with Jacob Duffy leading the charge with three wickets, while Bhuvneshwar, Rasikh Salam and Krunal Pandya chipped in with two wickets each. Bhuvneshwar also reserved special praise for captain Patidar, highlighting the calm leadership style that has helped RCB thrive this season despite the presence of several senior players in the dressing room. Rajat is a very simple human being off the field as well. When you become a captain, I can understand, it was his first season and there were many senior players in the dressing room, so he didn't interfere much. But he is so mature, he knows when to say something, where to give suggestions and when to let the bowlers do their thing. Bhuvneshwar also reserved special praise for captain Patidar, highlighting the calm leadership style that has helped RCB thrive this season despite the presence of several senior players in the dressing room.

IPL 2026: A Trophy For The Lost! Why This RCB Final Means More Than Cricket

Indian Premier League: RCB RCB On most nights, the chants begin long before the first ball is bowled. Red jerseys flood the streets, flags rise above packed stands, and somewhere in the middle of all that noise stands one man who has carried the dreams of Bengaluru for nearly two decades Virat Kohli. But this Indian Premier League (IPL) season feels different. This is not just another campaign for Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Not just another shot at silverware. Not just another Virat Kohli masterclass. This season carries memory, pain, and emotion. A year after finally ending their long wait for an IPL title, RCB are back in the final stronger, calmer, and playing with the confidence of champions. They topped the league stage before crushing the Gujarat Titans (GT) in a dominant playoff performance, sealing their place in the IPL 2026 final. And leading the charge, almost poetically, is Kohli. At 37, when many expected him to slow down, Kohli has instead produced one of the most stirring seasons of his IPL career 600 runs in 15 matches, including a century and four half-centuries. But beyond the numbers lies something deeperintensity, purpose, and emotion. Every run seems personal. Every celebration feels heavier. Because everyone connected with RCB remembers what followed the joy of 2025. When the franchise lifted its maiden IPL trophy last year, Bengaluru erupted in celebration. Fans poured into the streets and gathered outside the Chinnaswamy Stadium to welcome their heroes home. For millions, it was the fulfilment of a dream they had waited 18 long years to witness. But amid the celebrations came unimaginable tragedy. A stampede outside the stadium turned a historic night into one of grief. Fans who had come only to celebrate their beloved team never returned home. The city that had danced in joy suddenly fell silent in mourning. The scars of that night have not faded. And perhaps that is why this RCB campaign feels less like a title defence and more like an emotional Inside the dressing room, there is talk of cricket. Outside it, there is something far deeper. There is remembrance. There is responsibility. There is a desire to honour the fans who made RCB what it is. For years, RCB was mocked as a franchise built purely on emotion a team that entertained brilliantly but somehow failed to cross the final hurdle. Runner-up finishes in 2009, 2011, and 2016 became painful reminders of opportunities lost. Seasons came and went, but the trophy cabinet remained empty. Yet the fans stopped supporting them. Not after defeats. Not after memes. Not after heartbreak. And neither did Kohli. Since 2008, he has remained loyal to one franchise in an era where loyalty in franchise cricket has become increasingly rare. Through criticism, tears, and relentless pressure, he carried the weight of expectations season after season. That is why the 2025 title meant so much. It was not merely a trophy. It was validation for Kohli, for the fans, and for everyone who continued to believe despite years of disappointment. Now, IPL 2026 offers something even bigger. A chance to heal. A chance to remember. A chance to give the city another moment of joy this time with reflection, gratitude, and tribute. Kohlis bond with fans has always gone far beyond statistics. Across India and around the world, he inspires fierce devotion. For many supporters, watching Kohli bat for RCB feels deeply personal almost generational. Fathers who once watched him as a young captain now watch him with their children. And perhaps that is why this final matters so much. If RCB lift the trophy again, it will not merely confirm their rise as champions. It will become a tribute to the supporters who stood by them for years and to those fans whose love for the team became their final celebration. And perhaps that is why this final matters so much.

IPL 2026: 'We Showed The Right Attacking Mindset': Patidar After RCB Crush GT To Reach Final

Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) captain Rajat Patidar praised his teams aggressive intent and fearless approach after their massive 92-run victory over Gujarat Titans in Qualifier 1 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 on Tuesday, which helped the defending champions secure a second consecutive appearance in the final. Patidar led from the front with a sensational unbeaten 93 off just 39 balls as RCB posted a record-breaking 254/5 before bowling Gujarat Titans out for 162 at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium. The RCB skipper said the team entered the game with a positive mindset and showed strong intent from the beginning against the Gujarat bowling attack. It was a super game for us. The way especially the batsmen dominated, and everyone was striking with intent, I think that was really good for us, Patidar said after the match. It was not about having one clear plan against the bowlers, but we were ready for the challenge. You have to show some body language that we are coming for you. That attitude was there in every batsman, he added. RCB batters attacked from the very start, with Venkatesh Iyer, Virat Kohli, and Devdutt Padikkal providing quick runs before Patidar and Krunal Pandya took complete control in the middle overs. Patidar revealed that the team discussion before the game focused heavily on maintaining attacking intent on the big stage. We had a chat in the meeting that we needed good body language and an attacking mindset. It was Qualifier 1, a big stage, and the way we dominated the game was superb, he said. Talking about his own batting approach, the RCB captain said he prefers to assess the conditions first before shifting gears and putting pressure back on the bowlers. My batting approach is usually the same. I like to take around 8-10 balls at the start to understand how the wicket is behaving and what the ball is doing. After that, I get a clear idea about how to go ahead, Patidar explained. I always like to put the bowler under pressure, and I dont worry too much about the wicket, he added. Patidar also praised RCBs bowlers for executing their plans perfectly while defending the massive total. Gujarat Titans lost five wickets inside the power play and never recovered in the chase. To be honest, the wicket was not that easy for hitting long sixes consistently because there was good bounce. The bowlers executed their plans really well and bowled more on the stumps, which helped us, he said.

IPL 2026: One Of Those Games We Would Like To Forget, Says Gill After GT Lose To RCB

Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium: Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill admitted that poor fielding and mistakes under pressure proved costly as his side suffered a crushing 92-run defeat against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Qualifier 1 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamshala on Tuesday. The loss ended Gujarats hopes of reaching the final directly, while defending champions RCB booked their place in a second consecutive IPL final after bowling out GT for 162 in reply to a massive 254/5. Gill said Gujarat were still in the game till the middle overs but failed to handle pressure situations properly. I think we were going pretty well up until the 12th or 13th over. I dont think our fielding was at par. We dropped a couple of catches, and our ground fielding was also not up to the mark, Gill said after the match. RCB captain Rajat Patidar made Gujarat pay heavily for those missed chances, smashing an unbeaten 93 off just 39 balls. Gujarat also leaked runs through misfields and no-balls during the middle overs as RCB registered the highest total in IPL playoff history. Reflecting on the defeat, Gill described it as a match the team would prefer to move on from quickly. This is one of those games that we would like to forget and start over in Mohali, he said. Despite the disappointing result, the Gujarat captain insisted the team regularly works on fielding during practice and team meetings. Its definitely something that we address in team meetings and practice sessions. The intensity was there, but in pressure situations, we were not up to the mark, Gill added. Chasing a daunting target of 255 on a batting-friendly Dharamshala pitch, Gujarat lost wickets at regular intervals. Gill himself was dismissed for just two runs by Bhuvneshwar Kumar, while Jos Buttlers quick 29 was the only early resistance before Rahul Tewatia fought a lone battle with 68 off 43 balls. Gill, however, believed the target could still have been chased if GT had managed a strong start in the power play. Its all about getting a good start. On a ground like this, where the ball travels, and the outfield is quick, if we had a good power play, any target could have been chaseable with the way the wicket was playing, he explained.

IPL 2026: Patidars Unbeaten 93 Powers RCB To Record 254/5 Against GT In Qualifier 1

Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium: Captain Rajat Patidar produced a sensational unbeaten knock of 93 while Virat Kohli and Krunal Pandya chipped in with quickfire 43s as Royal Challengers Bengaluru stormed to a record-breaking 254/5 in 20 overs against Gujarat Titans in Qualifier 1 of IPL 2026 at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium on Tuesday. Asked to bat first after losing the toss, RCB came out with aggressive intent right from the opening over. Venkatesh Iyer gave the innings a flying start by taking on former RCB pacer Mohammed Siraj. The left-hander smashed three boundaries in the opening over and continued his attacking approach against Kagiso Rabada, hammering a six before falling on the very next delivery. Trying to pull a short ball, Iyer miscued his shot, and Shubman Gill completed a superb catch. The openers entertaining cameo ended at 19 off just seven deliveries, an innings studded with three fours and a six. Despite the early wicket, RCBs momentum never slowed down. Devdutt Padikkal joined Virat Kohli in the middle, and the pair launched a fierce counterattack against the Gujarat bowlers. Kohli looked in sublime touch as he drove Siraj for boundaries, while Padikkal targeted Rabada with three successive fours in one over. Kohli then took complete control in the final over of the Power-play, smashing Rabada for two boundaries and a six to propel RCB to 76/1, their highest Power-play total of the season. Just when RCB appeared set for an even bigger assault, the Gujarat Titans made a breakthrough via Jason Holder. Kohli, attempting another attacking stroke, saw the ball take the edge and crash into the stumps. The former RCB captain departed for a fluent 43 off 25 balls, narrowly missing out on a half-century. His innings featured five fours and a six. Holder struck again in the same over to bring Gujarat back briefly into the contest. Padikkal edged an outswinger behind after a brisk 30 off 19 deliveries that included five boundaries. From 91/1, RCB suddenly slipped to 102/3. However, skipper Rajat Patidar ensured the innings stayed firmly on course. Promoted up the order, Krunal Pandya joined his captain, and the duo rebuilt the innings smartly before shifting gears dramatically in the middle overs. Krunal began the acceleration by smashing a six off Prasidh Krishna, while Patidar initially took time to settle before exploding into action. The RCB captain also enjoyed a slice of luck when Gujarat fielders dropped him twice in the same over during the 13th over. Those missed chances proved extremely costly for the Gujarat Titans. The pressure visibly affected the fielding side as Kulwant Khejroliya bowled two no-balls in the following over, while Nishant Sandhu committed a costly misfield. RCB capitalised fully on the errors and collected 28 runs from the 15th over to regain complete control of the innings. The carnage continued in the next over as even Rashid Khan, usually one of the most economical bowlers in T20 cricket, was taken apart for 21 runs. RCB raced towards the 200-run mark with remarkable ease as Patidar began unleashing a range of powerful strokes all around the ground. Gujarat eventually ended the threatening stand when Rabada dismissed Krunal with a well-disguised slower delivery. Krunal played an impactful innings of 43 from 28 balls, hitting five fours and two sixes during his stay. At the other end, Patidar reached his half-century in stunning fashion, bringing it up in only 21 balls with back-to-back sixes off Rabada in the 17th over. Tim David, returning to the playing XI, failed to provide the late flourish RCB expected as he was bowled by Prasidh Krishna for just four runs. But Patidar ensured there was no slowdown in scoring. The RCB captain dominated the death overs with fearless hitting, dispatching the Gujarat bowlers to every part of the stadium. Patidar remained unbeaten on 93 off just 39 balls, smashing five fours and nine towering sixes in a breathtaking captains knock. Jitesh Sharma also played a useful cameo of 15 as RCB crossed the 250-run mark, registering the highest total ever recorded in IPL playoff history. For the Gujarat Titans, Jason Holder and Kagiso Rabada picked up two wickets each, but their bowlers struggled badly under relentless pressure from the RCB batting line-up. Jitesh Sharma also played a useful cameo of 15 as RCB crossed the 250-run mark, registering the highest total ever recorded in IPL playoff history.
