Kolkata Knight Riders’ title defence ended with a washout in Bengaluru knocking them out of IPL 2025. The tournament’s return after a break because of tensions between India and Pakistan was a wet one as heavy rains lashed the city.

M. Chinnaswamy Stadium witnessed a sea of white jerseys as fans gathered to honor Virat Kohli's Test career. However, rain played spoilsport, leading to the match abandonment between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Kolkata Knight Riders.

IPL 2025 is set to resume with this match but the rain is currently having all the fun. Given the superb drainage system at the venue, fans should be hopeful to see the action. The match will start losing overs from 8:45 pm IST.
