IPL 2026 Final: The title match of IPL 2026 is to be played between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Gujarat Titans (GT) on Sunday. Shubman Gill can prove to be a big threat for RCB in the final match at the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad.
Gill’s excellent record in Ahmedabad
Actually, the captain of Gujarat Titans likes the ground of Ahmedabad very much. At GT’s home ground, Gill has so far scored 1,374 runs in 31 innings at a strike rate of 162. He has scored 3 centuries and 7 half-centuries on this ground. Gill’s highest score at Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium has been 129 runs. It is also a matter of concern for RCB that the current form of the Gujarat Titans captain is also excellent.
Century in the qualifier against Rajasthan
In the second qualifier match, Shubman Gill single-handedly led GT to victory against Rajasthan Royals by batting brilliantly. Gill played an excellent inning of 104 runs in 53 balls. In this inning, Shubman had hit 15 fours and 3 sixes.
Second highest run scorer in IPL 2026
Gill is at second place in the list of batsmen who have scored the most runs in IPL 2026. He has scored 722 runs in 15 matches played this season at a strike rate of 163. In such a situation, if RCB has to defend its title, then Gill will have to be sent to the pavilion as soon as possible in the final.
However, in the first qualifier, Gill’s bat was completely silent against RCB and he was out after scoring just 2 runs. In the first qualifier, GT had to face a huge defeat of 92 runs against RCB. GT will take the field on its home ground with the intention of settling the score of the previous defeat. Gujarat Titans have played 22 matches so far in Ahmedabad, out of which the team has won 15. Out of 7 matches played at Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium this season, GT has won 5 matches, while the team has faced defeat in 2.
