RCB vs GT Highlights, Who Won Yesterday’s IPL Match? Royal Challengers Bengaluru were handed their first defeat of the ongoing Indian Premier League season as the Gujarat Titans beat them by eight wickets at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.

Who were Gujarat Titans’ match-winners?

For the Gujarat Titans with the ball, it was Mohammed Siraj, who ended with figures of 3 for 19 against his former team. Siraj’s scalps on the night included the dangerous Phil Salt, who he dismissed right after the batter had hit him for a monstrous six.

Siraj was instrumental in restricting RCB to just 169 runs batting first. Then, with the bat, it was Sai Sudarshan (49) and England’s Jos Buttler, who scored an unbeaten 73 off 39 balls, that helped the Gujarat Titans hand Royal Challengers Bengaluru a defeat in their first home game of the season.
