Chennai : Meteorologists have said that the match between Chennai and Bengaluru as the 68th match of the IPL series will be marked by rain. This will show which team’s playoff chances will be in trouble.
The 68th match of the ongoing IPL series will be played between Chennai Super Kings and Bengaluru Royal Challengers on May 18. This match is very important for both the teams. If the Chennai team wins this match, they will retain the chance for the play-off round.
Similarly, if the Royal Challengers team wins this match by 18 margin or if they chase down the target within 18 overs, Bengaluru will also retain the play-off opportunity. As this match is the last match of the league for both teams, there is no doubt that there will be no dearth of excitement in this upcoming match.
But now rain is going to be a major problem in this match, according to the Meteorological Department. The match is scheduled to take place on May 18 at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Now, as predicted by the Meteorological Department, if there is any chance of rain, it will be a big thunderbolt for the RCB team. Chennai team is already at the 3rd position in the points table with 14 points at a good run rate.
But RCB is at the 5th position with 12 points despite its good run rate. If rain interrupts the match, both teams will get one point each. As a result, Bengaluru team will get only 13 points. Also, due to this, the Bengaluru team will be out of the series without qualifying for the play-off round.
At the same time, with 15 points and 1 point, the Chennai team’s playoff round will be a question mark. If this happens, if Hyderabad and Lucknow win the matches, then Chennai and Bengaluru will be out of the series. Due to this, Chennai team fans and Bengaluru team fans are a bit worried.
