In the IPL 2026 Qualifier 1, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) defeated Gujarat Titans (GT) to secure a direct spot in the finals. RCB posted a massive total of 254 runs. Gujarat's chase crumbled in the powerplay with the early dismissals of Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan. Captain Gill cited poor fielding and a bad start in the powerplay as the main reasons for the loss. GT will now face the winner of the Eliminator in Qualifier 2 on May 29. https://www.tv9marathi.com/sports/cricket-news/gujarat-titans-missed-out-chance-to-reach-the-finals-after-losing-in-ipl-2026-qualifier-1-captain-shubman-gill-said-1677143.html #creator program
