The 44th match of IPL 2025 between KKR and PBKS has been halted due to rain in Kolkata with only one over possible in the second innings. Punjab Kings batted first and managed to get 201 on the board while KKR are seven for no loss at the end of the first over.

The fans would be hoping that the match kickstarts soon, and we get a full game, but for that, the rain needs to stop and the cut-off time for the 20-over match is 10:35 PM IST. There are strong Kalboishakhi winds flowing through the stadium and that is making it difficult for the groundstaff to keep covers intact.

According to Accuweather.com, the chances of rain pouring down consistently is rain, but there is red warning for lightning till 11:20 PM. So, fans and both the teams would be hoping that the weather clears soon, and we get a full match.

Also, both the teams need two points from this game, and more so the home team that is at the seventh position. They have a stiff target of 202 in front of them, but would be backing themselves to chase it, rather than settle with one point if rain and lightning does not allow any more cricket at Eden Gardens.

For the result to come out, there should be at least five overs in the second innings, but that is long way away. Punjab Kings too need two crucial points to strengthen their position on the points table, and it would be interesting to see how the weather shapes up for the rest of the duration of the game.
