Rain threatened RCB vs CSK IPL 2025 Clash: What can it mean in the playoff race

Royal Challengers Bangalore’s M Chinnaswamy Stadium may be expected to be a dream due to the risk of rain hanging on the stability pulsed against Chennai Super Kings with 16 points. In the last two days, Bengaluru has experienced continuous rain, and the trend may continue on the match day. According to the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), “rain or thunderstorms occur in the afternoon or evening.”
According to Espncricinfo, the rain also obstructed the preparations of both teams on the eve of clash. Chennai started its training at 3 pm, but could practice on the ground for only 45 minutes before the rain intervention. The players then returned to the train at 4.30 pm.
Royal Challengers Bangalore came to practice around 5 pm. Virat Kohli and Devdutt Padikal batted for about 45 minutes to an hour an hour before the rain.
This time, the rain did not reduce for three hours, so the practice session of RCB had to be canceled. During the evening, there was a thunderstorm and topical electricity, which led to waterlogging in many parts of the city.
Chennai, five -time champions, have already been out of the race for the playoffs, sitting under the table, with just two wins of ten fixtures.
However, for RCB, stability was an invaluable opportunity to go to the top of the table with 16 digits. Royal Challengers captured the third position on the points table with seven wins and three defeats.
Bangalore watched a match between RCB and Punjab Kings last month, which was reduced to 14 overs due to continuous rains.
Chennai will face RCB in Bengaluru for the first time after the nail-biting affair in 2024. In that stability, the RCB’s 27 -run win helped them achieve unimaginable and make their way through the playoffs.
In the ongoing season, RCB first won its first win in Chepack since 2008, as they instigated the Super Kings with a 50 -run win.
