Rajasthan Royals achieved a thrilling six-run victory over Gujarat Titans in their IPL 2026 match on Saturday. Captain Riyan Parag credited a pivotal tactical decision involving Dhruv Jurel, who suggested bringing back Jofra Archer for the 19th over, allowing the Royals to regain control. In the final over, Tushar Deshpande excelled under pressure, conceding just four runs and securing the crucial wicket of Rashid Khan, as Gujarat fell short of the 11-run target despite a late partnership between Khan and Kagiso Rabada. Earlier, Ravi Bishnoi's impressive four-wicket haul laid the groundwork for the Royals' success. With this win, Rajasthan Royals moved to the top of the IPL 2026 points table with four points from two matches and a strong net run rate of +2.233. Conversely, Gujarat Titans faced their second consecutive defeat, marking a disappointing start to their season. Rajasthan Royals will next face Mumbai Indians as they aim to extend their winning streak.
