KKR’s practice session had to be cancelled due to rain The sky will be cloudy on the day of IPL final
New Delhi. Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad, who were in the top 2 in the league stage, will face each other in the IPL final on Sunday. KKR topped the table and entered the final by defeating Hyderabad in Qualifier 1, while SRH had to travel a long way to get a ticket to the final. Hyderabad defeated Rajasthan Royals in Qualifier 2 to set up a title clash with KKR. KKR practiced indoors a day before the final because their entire practice session was washed away due to rain. After the rain, KKR players were seen playing football. The ground staff quickly covered the pitch.
According to the weather website AccuWeather, the sky will be cloudy in the evening on the day of the IPL final match to be played between KKR and Hyderabad (KKR vs SRH). There is a 3 percent chance of rain. That means almost zero. The temperature in the evening is expected to be between 32 and 33 degrees Celsius. The way it rained on Saturday and KKR’s practice session was interrupted, if the same happens on Sunday, then fans need not panic. The reserve day for the final has also been used up. If the final is not held on Sunday due to rain, then it will be played on Monday.
