WOW!!! Kolhi smashes Mohit Sharma for a SIX. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Players Are Out Again!

VK, the superman, is at the crease, while Faf du Plessis is there as his partner at the top as usual.

Oh, ho! Kohli could have been gone without scoring a run  had the ball hit the stumps.

RCB Vs GT Live Score: RCB get 3 in 3, GT bowled out for 147!!

In the airrr and gone!! Vijaykumar Vyshak gets an emphatic start to the final over as he gets debutant Manav Suthar for one. One brings three for RCB as GT lose two more in two successive balls. GT have been bowled out on 147!

RCB Vs GT Live Score: One brings two, Tewatia perishes

In a bid to break the shackles, Rahul Tewatia attempts for a big shot as the ball flies towards the third man. 

What a stunning grab from Vyshak Vijaykumar to end Tewatia's stay! A full-stretched dive and more importantly, he balanced himself so well there. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Dayal's corker castles Rashid

Yash Dayal bowls a terrific yorker to clean up Rashid Khan. What a time to get a wicket! 

Rashid shuffles too much towards the off side only to see his leg stump uprooted. Anushka Sharma is happy in the stands 🤩 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: 4, 6, 4, 4! Tewatia toys with Karn Sharma

Rahul Tewatia has still got it 🤩 Exceptional stuff from the all-rounder as he takes on Karn Sharma, smacking him for 18 runs in four balls. 

The Titans are steadily making a comeback into this match. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Khan sahab takes charge for GT

Rashid Khan finally gets going with an incredible six off Vijaykumar's bowling. 

He bowls a body-line delivery as Rashid muscles it over the square leg for a maximum. GT needs plenty of those, I must say. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Kohli' rocket arm leads to SRK's demise

Virat Kohli, take a bow! The fitness standard this man has set is simply incredible.

Shahrukh attempts for a risky run as Kohli picks the ball up and hits the bull's eye to get SRK's prized wicket. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Six and out, Karn gets his revenge!

After dropping Miller, Karn Sharma concedes a six off his first delivery. However, he makes a remarkable comeback as he gets rid of the Proteas great on the next ball. 

Miller perishes while playing a big shot. GT are 4 down with 80 on the board. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: 50 partnership up with a huge six

It's hugeeee, in fact it's humongous from Shahrukh Khan as he smokes Cameron Green for a maximum. 

50-run partnership comes up between the dynamic pair and it's fair to say they have breathed life into the Titans' innings. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Karn drops a sitter, Miller gets a lifeline

In the airrrrr and..... Oh dear, what have you done Karn Sharma!! Such catches must be taken at this level. 

Miller pulls it fiercely as the ball goes straight to Karn in the deep square leg. But he drops a sitter to give Miller a lifeline. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Miller delivers first killer blow

It was long due!! David Miller hits the first six of the day for GT. Some high-quality shot this to get some confidence. 

SRK extends GT's dominance over Karn Sharma with a boundary as we speak. This is the over the Titans needed to get some impetus. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: SRK gets lucky again

Shahrukh Khan is riding his luck tonight! Another outside edge off his bat goes for four. But as once a wise man said, it doesn't matter how the runs come until they keep coming. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Dayal's stunning effort gets applause

David Miller cheekily guides one to the third-man only to see Yash Dayal saving a certain boundary with an incredible fielding effort. 

As a result, the Titans get a solitary run, taking them to 41 for three in eight overs. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Drama in the middle

Vyshak Vijaykumar bowls a body-line delivery around the leg stump as Miller misses the glance through the fine leg. 

However, RCB players go upstairs for a caught behind after Dinesh Karthik takes a stunning grab behind the stumps. 

TV umpire finds nothing in the ultra-edge and rewards the batting side an extra run through a wide. 

Well, DRS goes wrong for RCB there! In fact, Virat Kohli signals the umpire to give it a wide. 😁

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Green joins the party, Sudharsan departs

Another GT batter bites the dust while trying to break the shackles. This time it's B Sai Sudharsan who has to make his way back to the dugout. 

Green bowls a length ball as Sudharsan mistimes it, with the ball gobbling up in the air for a long time. Virat Kohli takes a simple catch and kisses the ball gleefully. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: 'Lucky' SRK scores 1st boundary for GT

Siraj bowls a magnificent nip backer as Shahrukh Khan inside-edges it to score the first boundary of the day through the fine leg. Not a convincing way to get off the mark though. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Siraj gets the big fish, Gill is gone

In the airrr and Vijaykumar takes an easy catch!! Mohammed Siraj rightly celebrates as he has got the prized breakthrough of Shubman Gill. This is a massive wicket for RCB. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Still no boundary for GT 🧐

We are three overs into the game and GT are yet to hit a boundary. This is some level of discipline by the RCB bowlers. 

Also, the track seems slightly two-paced, with the batters struggling to time the ball. It will be interesting to see if Gill and Sai Sudharsan finish the powerplay on a high for the visitors. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Miyan draws the first blood for RCB

Siraj offers some width as Saha edges it straight to Dinesh Karthik! Siraj gets his bunny once again, what a brilliant start by RCB! GT have been rocked by an early wicket. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Swapnil keeps things incredibly tight

What a first over that was from Swapnil Singh! Although he didn't get a wicket, he managed to keep the GT openers quiet, conceding a single off his first over. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Time for live action 🏏

Well, it's time for live action and interestingly RCB will start with Swapnil Singh's left-arm off spin. Probably because GT have two right-handers as their openers? Ok, here we go, Swapnil starts with a dot ball.

RCB Vs GT Live Score: What do the H2H stats say 👀

So, RCB have a real chance to make it two-all tonight, but will they be able to do it? Only time will tell. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: M Chinnaswamy Stadium pitch report

The surface at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru has traditionally been flat and batting-friendly. 

But in this IPL season, we have seen the bowlers keeping things tight, especially in the first half of the game.  

However, it will flatten as the game progresses, making things significantly easier for the batters in the latter half.  

RCB Vs GT Live Score: MIYA Magic Moment.. 🍻

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Team Previews

Gujarat Titans

On the other hand, Gujarat Titans haven't been the same side in the post Hardik Pandya era. 

Although Shubman Gill has earned massive applause from the critics for his leadership, his troops have failed to step up as a unit in the competition. 

As a result, they have emerged as the third worst side of the IPL 2024, placed eighth in the points table. 

However, as they are still not eliminated, this game gives them the opportunity to stay alive in the tournament by securing a win. 

More importantly, they would be desperate to avenge the crushing defeat against RCB which they sustained a few days ago in Ahmedabad. 

RCB Vs GT Live Score: Team Previews

Royal Challengers Bengaluru

Led by Faf du Plessis, Royal Challengers Bengaluru have had a torrid run in the IPL 2024. 

However, after six consecutive crushing defeats, the Red Brigade finally regained their mojo with two successive thumping wins over SRH and GT. 

While ace batter Virat Kohli has sustained his purple patch with the bat, the emergence of Will Jacks has certainly benefitted RCB in the business end of the competition. 

However, with only three wins under their belt, featuring in the playoffs seems to be a distant dream for RCB. 

So, all they have to play for is their pride and their passionate fans, who will be cheering for them tonight. 

Hello and welcome to OneCricket's live blog for the high-voltage face-off between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Gujarat Titans. I am Debashis Sarangi, accompanied by my colleague, Rajgeeta Yadav and we will be taking you through all the thrilling moments of this game.
