RCB vs GT Head-To-Head Records & Key Stats (IPL 2026)

RCB vs GT Overall IPL Head-to-Head Record

The 3-3 scoreline across 6 matches tells the whole story — neither team has built any sustained edge over the other. Every result has been competitive and the margins have been decisive when they come, suggesting one team tends to dominate on the day even if the series stays level overall.

RCB vs GT Season-by-Season Results

The 2024 season was RCB’s best against GT — they swept both encounters, including a stunning 9-wicket win at Ahmedabad powered by Will Jacks’ century. GT hit back emphatically in 2025 with an 8-wicket win at Chinnaswamy, restricting RCB to 147 and levelling the series at 3-3 heading into IPL 2026.

RCB vs GT Venue-Wise Head-to-Head Breakdown

The most surprising number here is GT’s 2-1 record at Chinnaswamy — RCB’s own home ground. Despite the home advantage, partisan crowd, and flat surface that suits RCB’s batting, GT have won two of the three matches played there. Away from Bengaluru, RCB have won both matches at Ahmedabad and Wankhede, while GT’s only away win came at Brabourne in 2022. Home conditions have clearly not been the deciding factor in this rivalry.

Top Run-Scorers in RCB vs GT Matches

Kohli’s average of 114.67 against GT is among the highest he holds against any single IPL opponent — a remarkable number across 6 innings that shows just how consistently he has performed in this fixture. His 101* remains the defining RCB innings of this rivalry. Shubman Gill’s 104* at Chinnaswamy in 2023 is the highest individual score in this rivalry’s history and came in a match-winning chase of 198 — proof that when Gill is on, he can take any total down on any surface.

Top Wicket-Takers in RCB vs GT Matches

Mohammed Siraj leads the wicket charts despite having played for both sides in this fixture across different IPL seasons — a unique distinction in this rivalry. Joshua Little’s 4/45 at Brabourne in 2022 remains the best single bowling performance in any RCB vs GT match, restricting RCB to 168 and setting up GT’s opening win between these teams. GT have three of the top four wicket-takers in this fixture, which explains why they have managed to win at Chinnaswamy despite the conditions favouring RCB.

Most Memorable Moments in This Rivalry

GT’s First Win, Brabourne 2022: In the very first meeting between these sides, GT were chasing 175 and knocked it off with 6 wickets to spare. It was a statement win for a franchise in their debut IPL season and established GT immediately as a team built to chase on any surface.

Gill’s Century at Chinnaswamy, 2023: Chasing 198 at RCB’s famous home ground, Shubman Gill scored 104* off 52 balls to take GT home by 6 wickets. That innings is still the highest individual score in this rivalry and remains the most devastating single batting performance GT have produced against RCB.

Will Jacks’ Ahmedabad Masterclass, 2024: RCB chased down GT’s 200 at Narendra Modi Stadium with 9 wickets to spare. Jacks’ century — struck at a strike rate that stunned the Ahmedabad crowd — gave RCB their most convincing away win in this fixture and showed the 2024 vintage of RCB could compete on any ground.

GT’s 8-Wicket Revenge at Chinnaswamy, 2025: After RCB had swept both 2024 meetings, GT came to Bengaluru in April 2025 and completely controlled the match — restricting RCB to 147 and chasing it down with 8 wickets and 13 balls to spare. It levelled the overall head-to-head at 3-3 and reset the entire rivalry heading into IPL 2026.

RCB vs GT Head-to-Head Records: Match Type Breakdown

The most telling stat in this entire rivalry is that RCB have actually won more matches away from home than at Chinnaswamy against GT. It flips the usual home-ground logic and confirms that GT have specifically found ways to handle RCB’s batting in Bengaluru — the venue where RCB are most dangerous and most comfortable.

IPL 2026 Context — What’s at Stake

RCB come into this fixture having won all three of their Chinnaswamy home matches in IPL 2026 — posting 203, 250, and 149 in those games. Virat Kohli has 247 runs this season at SR 157.32, Rajat Patidar is striking at over 212, and the Chinnaswamy surface is playing flatter than ever. From an RCB perspective, everything points toward a win on home soil.

GT’s case rests on their bowling — Prasidh Krishna (12 wickets), Kagiso Rabada (10 wickets), and Rashid Khan (6 wickets at Econ 7.70) form a bowling unit that is capable of restricting any batting lineup on any surface. Their 2-1 record at Chinnaswamy also proves they are not intimidated by the venue. If GT can replicate the 2023 and 2025 performances at Bengaluru, the rcb vs gt head to head record could move to 4-3 in their favour.
