Royal Challengers Bengaluru successfully defended their IPL crown by defeating Gujarat Titans by five wickets in the IPL 2026 final at the same Ahmedabad venue where they lifted their maiden title a year ago. Fittingly, it was Virat Kohli who sealed the victory with the winning six, capping off another memorable night in the franchise’s history.
Kohli once again underlined his status as one of the IPL’s all-time greats with a match-winning unbeaten 75 off 42 balls. His knock earned him the Player of the Match award, making him the second-oldest player to win the honour in an IPL final.
