Gujarat Titans joined the IPL in 2022, according to Wikipedia, so this rivalry is still young compared to matchups involving the league's original franchises. For a while the record sat close to even, with three wins apiece heading into the 2026 season.

RCB then won three of the four meetings that followed, including two knockout games, pushing the head-to-head to 6-4. Analysts who follow IPL head-to-head numbers generally caution against reading too much into a short run of results, since three wins in one playoff stretch can flip a record that took four seasons to build.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Gujarat Titans Stats: Total Matches Played

Ten meetings across four seasons (2022 through 2026) is a decent sample size for a franchise rivalry this new. Most of those matches have come in the league stage, with two arriving in the 2026 playoffs.

Matches Won by Each Team

RCB's advantage isn't old. Through most of the rivalry's history the two teams traded wins fairly evenly. It's really the 2026 IPL season, where RCB beat GT in a group match, then again in Qualifier 1, and then once more in the final, that separated the two records. Before that stretch, this was close to a coin-flip fixture.

Matches with No Result

There's no rain-affected or abandoned match on record between these two teams so far. Every meeting has produced a result.

Most Recent Meetings Between RCB and Gujarat Titans

In practice, playoff meetings get scrutinized far more closely than group-stage ones. RCB's Qualifier 1 and final wins carry more weight in how this rivalry is discussed than the earlier group match, even though all three count equally in the table above.

IPL 2026 Final

The most recent meeting was the IPL 2026 final, played May 31 at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. Royal Challengers Bengaluru won by five wickets to defend their title. The final was moved to Ahmedabad, so RCB played the designated home team role despite the shift in venue.

IPL 2026 Qualifier 1

Before the final, the two sides met in Qualifier 1 at HPCA Stadium, Dharamshala, on May 26. RCB batted first and posted 254/5, with Rajat Patidar scoring 93 off 33 and earning player of the match. GT were bowled out for 162, and RCB won by 92 runs, sending RCB straight into the final and GT into a second-chance Qualifier 2.

IPL 2026 League Match

Their group-stage meeting came on April 24 at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru. Gujarat Titans batted first and posted 205/3, built around a century from Sai Sudharsan (100 off 58). RCB chased it down with seven balls to spare, finishing 206/5.

Virat Kohli top-scored with 81 off 44 and was named player of the match, with a key stand alongside Devdutt Padikkal doing most of the damage.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Gujarat Titans Stats by Venue

M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru

Gujarat Titans have historically held a slight edge at RCB's home ground, most notably in 2023 when Shubman Gill chased down 197 with an unbeaten 104. RCB have since won the last two matches played here, in 2024 and 2026, narrowing that edge.

An exact all-time tally for this venue isn't something the available match records break out cleanly, so it's fairer to call this GT's traditionally stronger ground than to attach a precise ratio to it.

Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad

The two teams have met three times at Narendra Modi Stadium, including the 2026 final. RCB appear to have the better record here, based on the results reviewed for this piece, though the full breakdown of every scoreline at this venue isn't documented in one place.

Analysts covering this fixture generally treat venue trends as soft indicators rather than hard predictors, since a two-match swing, like RCB's recent run at Chinnaswamy, can undo years of a perceived edge fairly quickly.

Key Performance Trends in the Rivalry

Chasing vs Defending

For a long stretch, this fixture had an odd quirk: whoever batted second won. Through their first seven meetings, the chasing side came out on top every time, four wins for RCB and three for GT.

That trend broke in Qualifier 1 2026, when RCB batted first, posted 254, and won comfortably defending 92 runs. In practice, this kind of trend often breaks the moment a team changes its approach. Worth remembering before assuming any pattern in a head-to-head record is permanent. It usually isn't.

High-Scoring Matches

This has generally been a high-scoring fixture. RCB's 254/5 in Qualifier 1 is the highest total either side has posted against the other, and GT's 205/3 in the April 2026 league game sits well above a typical T20 score too. Totals near or above 200 show up often enough in this matchup that low-scoring, bowler-dominated contests are the exception, not the rule.

Standout Individual Performances

Notable Batting Performances

A few innings stand out across the ten meetings. Shubman Gill's unbeaten 104 off 52 in the 2023 chase at Chinnaswamy remains one of the defining knocks in this rivalry, and Sai Sudharsan's century (100 off 58) in April 2026 is the most recent hundred either side has scored against the other.

On the RCB side, Rajat Patidar's 93 off 33 in Qualifier 1 and Virat Kohli's 81 off 44 in the April 2026 game are the performances that come up most often. In practice, one big century tends to define how a rivalry is remembered more than a string of good-but-not-great scores, which is part of why those two hundreds keep getting referenced.

Notable Bowling Performances

Bowling figures here tend to be workmanlike rather than dominant, which makes sense given how often both sides post big totals. One performance worth flagging: Jacob Duffy's 3/39 for GT in the 2026 Qualifier 1 loss, taken while defending a chase that ultimately fell well short.

Most bowling contributions in this matchup have been about limiting damage rather than running through a lineup.

IPL 2026 Season Outcome for Both Teams

Royal Challengers Bengaluru's 2026 Season

RCB finished first in the league stage of IPL 2026 and went on to win the title, beating GT in the final. Virat Kohli was their leading run-scorer for the season with 675 runs, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar led the wicket-taking charts for the team with 28.

Gujarat Titans' 2026 Season

Gujarat Titans reached the final as runners-up after going through Qualifier 2, having lost Qualifier 1 to RCB. Losing the final to the same opponent they'd already faced twice that season summed up how the year went for GT against this rival.

Teams that lose a final to a side they've already faced earlier in the same season typically point to small margins rather than one-sided contests, and that held here too, with both defeats coming by clear but not overwhelming gaps.

Conclusion

RCB lead the head-to-head 6-4 across ten meetings, largely on the back of a strong IPL 2026, where they beat GT three times, including in the final. GT still hold a slight edge historically at Chinnaswamy, RCB's home venue.
