Who will win today’s IPL match between RCB vs GT?
Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Gujarat Titans will square off against each other in IPL 2025 on Wednesday, April 2.
Match Overview
The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will be locking horns with the Gujarat Titans (GT) at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Wednesday, April 2. The two sides have faced each other at this ground twice so far, with both winning one game each.
RCB has won its last two matches and has been successful in chasing and defending, respectively. For RCB, this will be their first game at home, and they will be excited to play in front of their fans, who are expected to turn up in huge numbers. The Rajat Patidar-led team has looked clinical this season so far, making sure they cover all the boxes. With most of the players turning up in crucial times, RCB has earned the rewards for it.
Meanwhile, the Gujarat-based franchise had a promising yet disappointing start to the season. Playing Punjab Kings at home, the side was hammered for 243 runs in their allotted overs that night, courtesy of Shreyas Iyer, Priyansh Arya, and Shashank Singh. Notably, GT gave a tough fight till the end, but were restricted to 232, eventually losing the game by 11 runs. However, in their last game against the Mumbai Indians, they made sure to finish on the winning side and did so, thanks to their brilliance in both the batting and bowling departments.

RCB vs GT Probable Best Performers
Probable best batter:
Virat Kohli could be the best batter in the upcoming game against the Gujarat Titans. Kohli, who has been giving good starts to his team, will be confident going ahead. With Bengaluru wicket suiting the batters, Kohli is expected to get runs. In two matches, the batting maestro has scored 90 runs, including an unbeaten 59 against Kolkata Knight Riders in the season opener.
Probable best bowler:
Mohammed Siraj will have his emotions flowing as he returns to the Chinnaswamy Stadium, but for the Gujarat Titans and not in RCB colours. Siraj, who represented the Bengaluru franchise for seven years, is the third-highest wicket-taker for them with 83 scalps in 87 matches. However, the 31-year-old will be aware of the conditions and give a tough time to the opposition batters. In the game against the Mumbai Indians, Siraj wreaked havoc by picking up two wickets in the powerplay.
