RCB, the defending champions under captain Rajat Patidar, will look to bounce back strongly at home, while Shubman Gill's GT side arrives with a balanced squad featuring star power and spin wizardry.

RCB vs GT Team News

RCB enter the match fully fit with no reported injuries. After a narrow defeat to Delhi Capitals in their previous outing, where the batting struggled on a slightly tacky surface, the home side will rely on their star-studded top order to regain momentum. Virat Kohli remains the cornerstone, while new additions like Phil Salt and Tim David add firepower.

Patidar's aggressive middle-order role has been a revelation this season. Gujarat Titans are also without injury concerns. Gill's men have shown consistency with a potent mix of experience and youth. Jos Buttler's explosive keeping-batting skills, Sai Sudharsan's stability, and Rashid Khan's match-winning spin will be key. Mohammed Siraj, now in GT colours, adds extra motivation against his former franchise. Both captains are expected to opt for batting-friendly strategies, with toss-winning sides likely preferring to chase under lights.
