RCB vs GT Dream11 Prediction, IPL 2026 Match 34: RCB are set to host another match at home, taking on the Gujarat Titans (GT) in game 34. This competition is set to begin at 7:30 PM IST on Friday at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. A solid victory can propel RCB to the second position in the standings. GT suffered a heavy 99-run defeat to the Mumbai Indians (MI) in their previous match.
It was their largest margin of defeat, as they never seemed competitive. Their middle order appears lacking, and they rely too much on their top order. Therefore, the top order must assume greater responsibility to establish the foundation.

Time: 7:30 PM IST
Venue: M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru
Wicket-keepers: Phil Salt, Jos Buttler

RCB vs GT, Bengaluru Pitch Report: Historically, the pitch in Bengaluru favors the batters. It is a venue that favors six-hitting, providing minimal assistance to the bowlers. Throughout the years, this location has been the scene of several high-scoring matches, including the one featuring the highest total in IPL history. The bounce has consistently been reliable, and shorter boundaries maintain the batters’ interest. The outfield is quite quick, posing challenges for the bowlers.
