The Gujarat Titans (GT) continue to hold the top position in the IPL 2026 points table, showcasing consistent and balanced performances throughout the season. After playing 12 matches, GT have accumulated 16 points, winning eight games and losing four. Their impressive net run rate of +0.551 has been a key factor in securing their lead in the standings.
One of the primary reasons for Gujarat Titans’ dominance is their well-rounded approach in both batting and bowling. The team has demonstrated resilience under pressure, clinching crucial victories at pivotal moments in the tournament.
Meanwhile, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are closely trailing in second place with 14 points from 11 matches, boasting a superior net run rate of +1.103. Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) also have 14 points from 12 games but rank below RCB due to a lower net run rate.
Punjab Kings (PBKS) hold the fourth spot with 13 points, while Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) share the fifth and sixth positions, each with 12 points.
Further down the table, Delhi Capitals (DC) have secured 10 points, and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) are in eighth place with nine points from 10 matches.
At the bottom of the standings, Mumbai Indians (MI) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) are struggling, each with only six points, making their chances of reaching the playoffs increasingly slim.
In a significant development as the playoff race intensifies, Gujarat Titans remain the team to beat, continuing to lead the pack in IPL 2026.
