Kagiso Rabada retained the IPL 2026 Purple Cap with 18 wickets after Gujarat Titans’ 77-run win over Rajasthan Royals. Rashid Khan starred with 4/33, climbing to sixth with 15 wickets. Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Anshul Kamboj follow with 17 wickets each.

Gujarat Titans' star all-rounder Rashid Khan was brilliant for his side against Rajasthan Royals. Taking four wickets to his name, Rashid Khan surpassed the likes of Ravindra Jadeja and Sunil Narine in an elite list.

Rashid picked the wickets of Dhruv Jurel, Donovan Ferreira, Ravindra Jadeja, and Shubham Dubey in his four overs at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium.

JAIPUR, India (AP) — Veteran spinner Rashid Khan picked 4-34 in four overs as Rajasthan Royals crashed to a 77-run loss to Gujarat Titans in the Indian Premier League 2026 on Saturday. Gujarat was made to bat first and scored 229-4.

Kagiso Rabada also took two wickets and Jason Holder polished off the tail with three as Gujarat dismissed Rajasthan for 152 runs, after wonder-kid Vaibhav Sooryavanshi scored 36 off 16 balls.

"It was vintage Rashid," Deep Dasgupta says after the spinner's four-for against RR; Mitchell McClenaghan feels Rabada is "getting the fruits of the work that he's put in"

RR will be returning to the field after a brief break following their seven-wicket defeat against Delhi Capitals on May 1.
