Round one was fire; now comes the reply. Gujarat Titans host Royal Challengers Bengaluru on 30 April, 7:30 PM at Ahmedabad, just six days after RCB chased 206 against them and won by five wickets. 

Bengaluru now arrive red-hot after flattening Delhi to 13/6 in the powerplay, one of the worst starts in IPL history, before sealing the chase in just 6.3 overs. 

GT answered with an 8-wicket win over CSK. Head-to-head stands 4-3 to RCB, and this rematch carries serious top-four heat.
