The IPL 2026 match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Gujarat Titans (GT) is set to be played on Friday at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru

Ahead of the match, RCB's premier batsman Virat Kohli is on the verge of achieving a new record in the league's history

The right-handed batsman is falling short of just one maximum to complete his tally of 300 sixes. So far in 273 matches, Kohli has smashed 299 maximums

If he manages to smash one more maximum, the 37-year-old cricketer will become the third batsman to achieve the feat in the history of the cash-rich league

Before him, Chris Gayle and Rohit Sharma have achieved the feat. Gayle concluded his IPL career with 357 sixes, whereas Rohit has so far registered 310 sixes
