RCB vs GT Live Score, IPL 2026 Final: RCB's Australian pacer Josh Hazlewood believes team can go for hat-trick of titles. "This one is right up there. We were more relaxed with the group, got the monkey off the back last year. Calm and composed throughout. Someone or other stepped up. I can't remember a game where he went over 35 runs. We took wickets, we could be relaxed. It's nice. Franchise, support staff put together beautifully. Everyone has a good time. Tough to build a good culture when teams shuffle but we've got it. A threepeat, we can't see why not," Hazlewood said after the match.

RCB vs GT Live Score, IPL 2026 Final: Virat Kohli reveals that he didn't feel the same pressure as the IPL 2025 final because they were the table-toppers this season. "I said it doesn't feel like there's same pressure as we had last year. We topped the table and said we're the best if we execute our plans. Just the skillset, composure and maturity we had showed. After the break, we had a loss and a close win vs MI. That was a tricky period, but the belief came back after that win. Amazing. We had to wait so long. You don't have to stand tall every time. World-class bowling, Hoff (Josh Hazlewood), Bhuvi (Bhuvneshwar Kumar), Rasikh (Salam) were amazing. We have balance, strength," Kohli said after the match.
