RCB vs GT, IPL 2026 Final: How many runs did Shubman Gill and B Sai Sudharsan score?
Coming into the game against the Royal Challengers in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, both Gill (722) and Sudharsan (710) were firmly in the hunt to take the Orange Cap from Sooryavanshi. However, Gill managed only 10 runs before Josh Hazlewood got the Titans skipper’s wicket, while Sai Sudharsan managed only 12 until Bhuvneshwar Kumar dismissed the southpaw. Meanwhile, Sooryavanshi has clattered 776 runs in 16 innings at 48.50 alongside a strike rate of 237.30 with a hundred that came against the SunRisers Hyderabad at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. The teenage prodigy is also in contention to win the Most Valuable Player (MVP) Award of the Season, Emerging Player of The Season Award and Sierra Super Striker of The Season Award. Along with that, Sooryavanshi is certain to win the most sixes of the season award as he has struck a mind-boggling 72.
