Ahmedabad Weather Forecast Live: IPL 2025 Final, RCB vs PBKS: Are there chances of rain?
Where the start of play is delayed or play is suspended for any reason, then extra time of (i) up to sixty minutes shall be available for each IPL regular season match; and (ii) up to one hundred and twenty minutes for any of the play-off matches. For the avoidance of doubt, if extra time is required to be used, it will be taken in the following sequence. In the event of a delayed start or interruption, the provision of sixty minutes (or one hundred and twenty minutes for play-off matches) extra time is to be used first, followed by the time allocated for 'time outs', and then the reduction in the innings change interval (if applicable). For clarity, the changeover period (maximum 10 mins) for a Super Over after the main match is not to be taken into account when applying any permitted extra time available. For the play-off matches, in addition to the extra time referred to above, there may be reserve days (on which an incomplete play-off match shall be completed). In case of a rare washout on both days, the team who finished at the higher position in the IPL points table will win the trophy. This means that Punjab Kings will be crowned champions in the case of a rare washout on both days. If Rain Washes Out IPL Final on June 3 In case the match does not get completed due to rain on Tuesday, there is a reserve date attached to the game. In case of a complete washout, the match takes place on June 4. If the Match Does Not Get Completed on June 3 Imagine a case where the match remains incomplete on June 3, the scheduled date for the final. There is ample time to finish it, given there is a two-hour grace period given to every game. It means that the cut-off time for today is at 11:56 PM. In case the match starts, and then does not get finished, it will be paused and restarted on the next day. As per Arunkumar Dasane, director of the Ahmedabad weather department, Tuesday's weather isn't overly promising. "Our forecast for tomorrow indicates light to moderate rainfall in isolated areas, particularly for Ahmedabad and nearby regions. "The temperature in Ahmedabad is expected to be around 37 degrees, with a high likelihood of cloudy skies," said Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Punjab Kings are set to play the Indian Premier League final on Tuesday, June 3. The match, being played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, is set to be affected by rain.
