The IPL 2026 match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Gujarat Titans (GT) is scheduled to be played on Thursday at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad

Ahead of the match, RCB stalwart Virat Kohli is set to achieve a new feat in the league's history

He is just five maximums shy of eclipsing Rohit Sharma on the list of players with the most maximums in the tournament's history

Currently, Rohit is the second leading six-hitter in the league's history with 310 maximums to his name. Topping the list is Chris Gayle, who has smashed 357 maximums in 142 IPL matches

So far, Kohli has 305 sixes under his belt in 275 IPL matches for the Bengaluru-based franchise. It will be interesting to see if the right-handed batsman manages to smash the required sixes
