In the IPL 2026 match against Gujarat Titans (GT), Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) emerged victorious by 29 runs at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata.

After suffering a defeat, GT's skipper Shubman Gill said, "Looking at the wicket, 200-210 was par score but we dropped too many catches. Pitch was good, the odd one was stopping but I felt we batted well to get to the score we did. No concerns but our fielding could've been a lot better. We set a certain standard and dropping 3 sitters - we didn't deserve to win this one. Looking at it that way, best to have a game like this now than in the Qualifiers. I think rest and recover for a couple of days, travel back to Ahmedabad, see how the wicket is and then plan accordingly (for the next game)".
