Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) returned to winning ways in the Indian Premier League (IPL 2026) as they smashed Gujarat Titans (GT) by five wickets on Friday (April 24). Riding on an excellent 81 off 44 from Virat Kohli, RCB won against GT at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru with seven balls to spare. The win also means RCB are second in the points table with 10 points, with Punjab Kings (PBKS) topping the charts.<h2>RCB thrash GT</h2>Left-handed opener Sai Sudharsan's third IPL hundred was the cornerstone of Gujarat's 205-3 on being put in by Rajat Patida. But Kohli (81) and Devdutt Padikkal (55) tore into the bowling during a rollicking 115-run second-wicket stand, delighting a full house in Bengaluru's final league match of the season at this venue.&nbsp;Kohli was put down by Washington Sundar at mid-wicket off the first ball he faced from Mohammed Siraj, in the first over of the chase, and made Gujarat pay for their largesse with a thrilling exhibition of stroke-making. Bengaluru lost Englishman Jacob Bethell, playing his first game of the season in place of injured compatriot Phil Salt, in the third over.

<h2>Du Plessis runs&nbsp;riot</h2>

Needing 148 runs to win, Du Plessis took the attack to the opposition bowling attack and scored runs all over the park. His 17-ball fifty was the second-fastest for the franchise and&nbsp;one that&nbsp;laid the foundation for a good start. His innings of 64 runs consisted of 10 fours and&nbsp;three sixes&nbsp;and&nbsp;with Virat&nbsp;Kohli&nbsp;he scored 92 runs in the powerplay, the&nbsp;highest for RCB in the tournament’s history.&nbsp;

<h2>RCB survive late collapse</h2>

Having been 92/0, the hosts quickly were reduced to 117/6 as they lost six wickets in&nbsp;the space of&nbsp;25 runs. Joshua Little was the architect of the RCB downfall as he scalped four wickets during his four-over spell. After Faf’s dismissal, Will Jacks (1), Glenn Maxwell (4), Rajat Patidar (2) and Cameron Green (1) departed in quick succession. Virat Kohli&nbsp;also&nbsp; joined the pack when he&nbsp;was dismissed&nbsp;for 42 off 27.&nbsp;

In the end, Dinesh Karthik (21) and Swapnil Singh (15) got the side home to register just their fourth win of the IPL 2024 season.&nbsp;

However, despite this&nbsp;RCB&nbsp;still managed to secure the win as they won by four wickets with 38 balls to spare. The big win helps them improve their net run rate while&nbsp;also&nbsp;lifting the side from the bottom of the IPL 2024 standings.&nbsp;

RCB are now seventh in the standings with eight points in 11 matches and still retain an outside opportunity to reach the playoffs. They next face Punjab Kings on Thursday (May 9) in Himachal Pradesh.&nbsp;
