Rain was predicted for the entire evening in Bengaluru and the predictions came true as relentless rain meant that the toss between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Kolkata Knight Riders was delayed due to rain. Neither of the two sides will be happy with the outcome as both the sides want a 20-overs contest.

RCB have a chance to reach the top of the points table and will also qualify for the playoffs if they beat KKR tonight. Similarly, if KKR beat RCB, they will strengthen their position and will be in the race for playoffs.

The Chinnaswamy Stadium has the best drainage system and the question arises, how quickly can the game start?.

Chinnaswamy Stadium Weather: How quickly can the RCB Vs KKR match start?

The drainage system at the stadium is best in the country and one of the best in the world. The SubAir system can evacuate the water from the ground at a rate of 10,000 litres per minute. If the rain stops, the drainage system will take hardly 15 minutes to start the play once the rain stops.

A prime example of this drainage system was the game between RCB and PBKS, when despite a relentless rain, the match went ahead, even if it was a reduced affair.

If the match does get abandoned, RCB will get a point which will take them to 17. KKR, on the other hand will be crashed out of the tournament even if not a single delivery is bowled.
