Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Punjab Kings Match: The IPL 2025 match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) has been delayed due to heavy rain at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. The weather forecasts had predicted rain, and the delay has left fans waiting longer for the toss.
With rain continuing to pour, the groundstaff has covered the pitch, but the match's status remains uncertain. The Chinnaswamy Stadium is known for having one of the best drainage systems in the world, but if the rain doesn’t stop, there is still a chance the match could be washed out.

In the event of a washout, both RCB and PBKS would earn one point each. This would have a direct impact on the points table. RCB would move to nine points, jumping to second place, while PBKS would also reach nine points, moving to third. Both teams would displace Gujarat Titans (GT), who currently have eight points.
While both teams would climb in the standings, they would be disappointed as they missed the opportunity to reach 10 points and join Delhi Capitals at the top of the table.
According to the reports, the weather is expected to improve after 8 p.m., and if the rain ceases, the drainage system at the stadium should allow the match to proceed smoothly. Fans and players alike are hopeful that the match will go ahead later tonight.
