Rajasthan Royals (RR) will take on Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in a top-of-the-table clash of IPL 2026. Both teams are undefeated and would leave no stone unturned to take the top spot. Currently, RR are at the helm with three wins in as many games. They defeated Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the first game before beating Gujarat Titans (GT) and Mumbai Indians (MI).
The defending champions RCB, have also been on a winning streak, beating Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and CSK. If RCB beat RR, they’ll be tied on points with RR, but their net run rate will jump ahead of the Royals and they’ll take the top position.
