Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are set to take on Gujarat Titans (GT) in match 14 of the IPL 2025. On a high after registering two victories, over big sides the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK), that too in away conditions, RCB will be more than willing to carry on with that momentum against Gujarat Titans. The win against CSK was a special one, as it came after a long wait of 17 years at the Chepauk. Rajat Patidar and co have looked a solid outfit with both bat and ball as well as on the field and their performances in both the away games have given fans the belief that IPL 2025 might just be the tournament which they go on to win. RCB are set to play their first home game but they would not take Gujarat Titans lightly at all.
