With Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) already sealing a place in the final after their emphatic win over Punjab Kings in Qualifier 1, today’s winner will earn the right to face PBKS in Qualifier 2 on June 1 in Ahmedabad.
Who's that IPL player?
However, even as fans gear up for the high-octane encounter between the two former champions, the lingering question remains: What if rain plays spoilsport?
Weather Update:
According to the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), Mullanpur may witness partly cloudy skies with chances of brief rain or thundershowers in certain areas. Temperatures could reach 40°C during the day before dipping to the low 20s in the evening.
Fortunately, forecasts from AccuWeather suggest a 0% chance of rain during the match, though the skies are expected to remain cloudy. Earlier in the day, Mullanpur did receive a spell of heavy rain, but conditions have significantly improved leading into the game.
What happens if rain disrupts play?
There is no reserve day for the Eliminator. If weather interferes and prevents even the minimum required five overs per side from being bowled, the match will be declared a no-result.
In such a scenario, Gujarat Titans, having finished higher on the league stage points table, will progress to Qualifier 2, while Mumbai Indians will be eliminated from IPL 2025.
The cut-off time for a reduced-overs match will follow IPL's standard playing conditions, with the organisers attempting to squeeze in the maximum possible action before that limit is reached.
