Rcb vs kkr: IPL 2025, which was postponed for a week due to increased tension between India and Pakistan, is going to resume today. The tournament will return from the match between RCB and KKR. However, the weather may be hit on this match, which is likely to affect the IPL start again.
Rain forecast in Bangalore
Both the weather -linked website, Accuweather and the Indian Meteorological Department, have predicted heavy rains in Bangalore on Saturday. There may be intermittent rain between noon and evening, which may disturb the match.
Training session also affected by rain
Keeping in mind the bad weather, the teams changed the time of their practice sessions. RCB kept its practice session between 2 pm and 5 pm. The team’s cricket director Mo Bobat said that the decision was taken due to possible bad weather. On the other hand, KKR started practice at 5 pm but due to the possibility of rain, their session was abolished till 6:30 pm.
Kolkata may suffer a big loss due to rain
If the competition is canceled due to rain, then Kolkata’s playoff hopes may get a big shock. The team now has only two matches left and has 11 points. If this match is washed away and cannot win the next, then it will be able to score a maximum of 14 points which can be insufficient to stay in the playoff race. Significantly, in the beginning of the season, a match of Kolkata against Punjab Kings has been canceled due to rain.
At the same time, the position of RCB is relatively better. Even if this match also takes rain, the team will still have a chance to make a place in the playoffs and the top two.
