IPL 2025 Final RCB vs PBKS: Hourly Rain Update And Pitch Report In Ahmedabad

The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 summit clash holds a bit of uncertainty, with rain expected to play a part in the title-decider between the Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Punjab Kings on Tuesday. The Qualifier 2 at the same venue - between Punjab Kings and Mumbai Indians - also led to a delayed start despite the probability of rain being considerably lower. On Tuesday, PBKS and RCB find themselves in a similar situation, with weather portals predicting showers till right before the start of the match.
