What Happens to RCB's Playoff Chances if IPL 2025 Match vs KKR Gets Washed Out in Bengaluru?

  • The IPL 2025 match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Kolkata Knight Riders was scheduled on May 17 at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru amid heavy rain threat.
  • This fixture gained importance after a 10-day IPL suspension caused by India-Pakistan border tensions, impacting both teams' playoff prospects significantly.
  • RCB, second on the table with 16 points, expects key players like Rajat Patidar and overseas players back, whereas KKR, the defending champions with 11 points, face must-win pressure.
  • Should rain wash out the match, KKR would be virtually eliminated with one point, while RCB would move to 17 points but delay securing a playoff berth.
  • The likely abandoned fixture implies KKR's exit from the playoffs race and prolongs RCB's qualification confirmation, emphasizing IPL weather's influence on tournament outcomes.
