All 10 teams fought hard, but in the end Royal Challengers Bangalore won the IPL 2026 title. In the final, RCB won its second consecutive trophy by defeating Gujarat Titans by 5 wickets. Youths like Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Prince Yadav and Anshul Kamboj stole the show with their explosive performance.
Meanwhile, there were some international star players who were expected to sail the boat of their respective teams, but proved to be a complete flop in terms of performance.

One of the main reasons for Chennai Super Kings’ batting problems in the middle overs was the absence of Dewald Brevis. His strike rate in international T20 cricket is more than 163, but in IPL 2026 he scored only 151 runs at a strike rate of around 128.
