IPL weather update: After rainfall in Bengaluru, weather forecast for RCB’s remaining games including GT and CSK

Post At: May 03/2024 09:10PM

With Royal Challengers Bengaluru taking on Gujarat Titans on Saturday, fans and the players will have one eye on the sky due to the sudden downpour in the last 24 hours which has brought relief to the citizens after suffering through a severe heatwave.

Fans, however, need not worry about the highly anticipated match getting impacted by rain because according to Accuweather, there is just a miniscule chance of rain during the clash between RCB and GT.

The website shows that the weather during the night will stay at 23° with 1% chance of a thunderstorm.

However, it also shows that there’s a chance of a couple of thunderstorms in the evening during the RCB vs DC match, set to be played on May 12.

Things don’t get better on May 18 either in Bengaluru’s high voltage match with Chennai Super Kings with Accuweather predicting the weather to be cloudy with showers and rainfall lasting for 3 hours.

Meanwhile, from a maths perspective, Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Gujarat Titans can still reach the IPL playoffs, but they need to ward off inner gremlins on Saturday to notch a mandatory win to keep that dream flickering.

The Royal Challengers are the bottom-dwellers with six points from 10 matches, while the Titans are placed eighth with eight points from 10 matches.

However, the floundering outings of Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals (10 points each) have fuelled the hopes of these two teams of sneaking into the middle tier of the points table and from there to the knockouts.

But both RCB and GT will know that keeping their own house in order is a better option than depending on other teams to stay afloat as the IPL group stage is entering its business end.
