RCB vs pbks first Qualifier if washed out: Royal Challengers Bangalore and Punjab Kings team are going to play the first qualifier match of IPL 2025. The Punjab team defeated Mumbai Indians in their last league match and confirmed a place for the qualifier. At the same time, Bengaluru also qualified for the first qualifier match by winning an exciting match against Lucknow Super Giants. But if it rains in the first qualifier match of IPL, then let us know what will happen.
What will happen to the rain in Bengaluru-Punjab match?
The first qualifier match of IPL 2025 will be played on June 29 at Mullanpur Stadium in Chandigarh. If it rains in the first qualifier match being played between Punjab and Bengaluru, then it will directly affect the Royal Challengers Bangalore. If the first qualifier match of the IPL is washed away in the rain, then the Punjab Kings team will reach the finals directly and RCB will have to play the eliminator match. The reason behind this is that the Punjab team is ahead of RCB due to high net run rate in the IPL points table, so Shreyas Iyer’s PBKS will get the benefit of rain.
Who ahead in the points table?
Both Bengaluru and Punjab teams have 19-19 points in the IPL points table. But Punjab’s net run rate is +0.372, while Bangalore’s NRR is +0.301. Despite the equal marks of RCB team, the net run rate is behind Punjab. If it rains in the first qualifier match, then the Punjab team will also enter the final without playing the match. At the same time, no reserve day has been kept for the first qualifier match.
Fear of rain in Chandigarh
The happiness for both Bengaluru and Punjab team is that on June 29, the possibility of rain in Chandigarh is very less. Due to lack of rain in the first qualifier match between Bengaluru-Punjab, people can get to see a thrilling match. At the same time, both teams would also like to play this match.
