The Indian Premier League’s 18th season finale is set for June 3, 2025. Royal Challengers Bangalore secured their spot in the final first by winning Qualifier 1. Punjab Kings also made it to the final by taking Qualifier 2. But will rain disrupt the IPL 2025 final and when can we expect a result?
In Ahmedabad, where the final will be played, the weather forecast looks promising. There’s only a 20% chance of rain, according to weather reports. The temperature is expected to be warm, and the match might go off without a hitch.
The recent Qualifier 2 match between Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings was also played in Ahmedabad. It got delayed due to heavy rain, starting at 9:45 PM instead of 7:30 PM. The match still went on for the full 20 overs, thanks to the two-hour extension, and the result came in at 2 AM.
If it rains during the IPL final, the match can be extended by two hours. And if the match can’t be played on June 3, June 4 is reserved as a backup day. If the match still can’t happen on June 4, Punjab Kings could be declared the winner, given their higher position in the league standings. Both teams have 19 points, but Punjab has a better net run rate.
