Will the Clouds Silence Chinnaswamy for RCB and KKR Clash

Will Rain stop RCB vs KKR 58th Match?

IPL 2025 is set to restart with the fifty-eight match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Kolkata Knight Riders at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru. However, with the clouds looming above the pitch, will rain stop RCB vs KKR 58th Match? 

Why is RCB vs KKR a high-stakes match? 

Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Kolkata Knight Riders is set to be the first match after a week of IPL being suspended, apart from a week’s anticipation, the match is being played to serve it’s ultimate purpose. 

Which is to decide if either RCB is going to top the points table, or KKR is close enough for playoff qualification. Or will the match be disrupted due to rain and KKR will be on their way home after the match will be disrupted. Apart from these situations, Virat Kohli will be playing his first match, after announcing his retirement from test cricket. This means the match will hold a bit more emotion than it’s normally supposed to hold. 

Will the RCB vs KKR be stopped due to Rain?

Although currently the sky is clear over the pitch at the M.Chinnaswamy, Bengaluru. However there are chances that the clouds could loom over pitch, further increasing the potential risk of match disruption due to rain.

Despite poor weather predictions, M. Chinnaswamy Stadium boasts a top-tier sub-air drainage system that can make the field ready for play within 10–15 minutes after rainfall, keeping hopes alive for a full or shortened game if even a short break in rain occurs. 

What will Happen if RCB vs KKR is stopped?

Even though M.Chinnaswamy’s drainage systems are world class, there could be a situation wherein the match can be stopped midway due to high downpour. If this situation happens, this would mean, the match will be suspended midway.

Which will result in RCB getting on the top spot of the points table with one point, and Kolkata Knight Riders will walk away home with their playoff hopes dwelling on the rain.
