Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) have faced Gujarat Titans (GT) in six matches so far.
RCB missed the playoffs for the first time in four years in 2023, but scripted a memorable comeback to qualify after being placed last at the halfway stage in 2024. Their season double over GT was a huge part of that.
Hardik Pandya-led Gujarat Titans, on the other hand, had a memorable first tournament as they clinched the title with the help of all-round performances from entire circuit. Pandya showed great signs of maturity in his first season as a captain. Pandya led the Titans to a runners up finish before leaving for Mumbai Indians. Hardik's successor Shubman Gill could not keep the momentum alive as GT couldn't qualify for the playoffs in IPL 2024.

The two teams last met in match no. 14 of IPL 2025 at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Gujarat Titans sent RCB in to bat and immediately put the hosts on the backfoot. As he has done more often than not, Mohammed Siraj struck in the powerplay and left his former team hanging. From there, RCB had a slowdown in the middle overs before Jitesh Sharma, Tim David and Liam Livingstone staged a revival to take RCB to 169 from 42/4. Prasidh Krishna and Sai Kishore supported Siraj with economical spells. The chase was rather comfortable. Despite a slow-ish start, Sai Sudharsan lent the prefect supporting hand to Jos Buttler's destructiveness which was also supported by Sherfane Rutherford's ruthlessness as GT completed an 8-wicket win woth more than two overs to spare.
