The Gujarat Titans (GT) are all set to clash against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the IPL 2026 match on May 26 at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamshala.
Ahead of the match, the Titans' lead pacer Kagiso Rabada will be eyeing a major feat in his IPL career. He is seven wickets shy of completing his tally of 150 scalps in the league's history.
Currently, the 31-year-old pacer has played 98 matches and registered 143 wickets to his name. Even if the Titans suffer a loss in the game against RCB, Rabada will still have an opportunity to achieve the milestone in the semi-final of the tournament. In the ongoing edition of the league, the speedster is sharing the top spot on the list of players with the most wickets. He is sharing the top spot with RCB's pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who has 24 wickets in 14 games.
The losing team from the game between RCB and GT will still have the opportunity in the semi-final with the winning team from the match between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Rajasthan Royals (RR).
