NEW DELHI: In the IPL 2026 match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Gujarat Titans (GT) at Bengaluru on Friday, things got a bit spicy between spinner Suyash Sharma and Shubman Gill. After getting Gill out, Suyash didn’t just celebrate normally, he cheekily copied Gill’s own ‘bow down’ celebration, which Gill had famously used after knocking RCB out of the playoffs in 2023. Suyash even waved his cap at the crowd, clearly enjoying the moment and giving it back to the opposition captain in a playful but bold way.

Gill tried to go big but mistimed his shot and was caught near long-on, giving Suyash a key wicket. The GT skipper could only amass 32 off 24 balls. What followed grabbed attention more than the dismissal itself. Suyash’s imitation of the ‘bow down’ move was a direct callback to Gill’s earlier celebration, turning the moment into a bit of on-field banter. The crowd at Chinnaswamy loved the drama, as it added extra edge to an already intense clash. Watch:

GT’s strong batting effort

Despite Gill’s dismissal, Gujarat Titans had a solid outing with the bat. Gill and Sai Sudharsan built a strong 128-run opening partnership. Sudharsan took control early, scoring freely while Gill played a supporting role before picking up pace. Sudharsan went on to score a brilliant century off 58 balls, his third in the IPL, anchoring the innings and pushing GT to a big total of 205. His dominance, especially during the Power Play, set the tone for the innings, even though Gill couldn’t convert his start into something bigger.

Virat Kohli (81) and Devdutt Padikkal (55) played smart and aggressive innings to guide RCB to a five-wicket win over Gujarat Titans, successfully chasing 206 despite Sudharsan’s century. Their quick 115-run partnership for the second wicket put the chase firmly in control, helping RCB finish the match in 18.5 overs and climb to second place in the points table with 10 points.
