Jay Shah, Sourav Ganguly Watch IPL 2026 Match with 1000 Differently Abled Fans

Shah was accompanied by the former India captain Sourav Ganguly and the duo watched the match with the fans from the stands, ditching the VIP area.

In the match, the Ajinkya Rahane-led KKR, while batting first, were reduced to 32-3 in four overs when Cameron Green joined hands with Rovman Powell (27 runs) to stitch a 55-run partnership and then combined for a 60-run partnership with Anukul Roy.

Green scored a 55-ball 79 and guided KKR to 180 in 20 overs, a total that looked rather difficult to achieve early in the team's innings.

GT, powered by captain Shubman Gill's 86-run knock, chased KKR's score with two balls and five wickets remaining and handed KKR their fifth successive defeat in the IPL 2026.

Kagiso Rabada's bowling figures of 3/29 in 4 overs proved crucial for the GT earlier in the match. With the win, GT now find themselves placed fourth on the points table.

KKR are currently positioned at the bottom of the IPL 2026 points table with no wins in six matches. While they faced defeat in five matches, they had an abandoned match against the Punjab Kings and hence have one point to their name.

While the Gujarat Titans are on a three-match winning streak, their NRR remains only slightly above zero. In contrast, several other teams have much stronger NRR figures, well over 0.300, with table-toppers Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru both boasting NRRs exceeding +1.

The Shubman Gill-led GT will take on MI in their next gam at the same venue on Monday, whereas KKR will clash with Rajasthan Royals at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Sunday.
