The 19th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 is reaching its climax as defending champions, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), prepare to face 2022 winners Gujarat Titans (GT) in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday.
Fans are eager for an uninterrupted showdown between these top teams. In case of rain or disruptions during the match, the IPL Final has a reserve day. If the game is affected on the first day, it will resume from the same point the following day.
Should the need arise, and the match remains incomplete even on the reserve day, RCB would be declared champions due to their top spot in the league standings. RCB finished first with 18 points from 14 matches, while Gujarat Titans secured the second spot with the same points, with only Net Run Rate differentiating the two teams.
The weather forecast for Ahmedabad appears promising, with a minimal chance of rain. Sunny conditions are expected for most of the day, providing hope for an undisrupted final clash. RCB aims to make history by becoming the third franchise to defend the IPL title, while Gujarat Titans seek their second championship victory.
