Royal Challengers Bengaluru will host defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders at the M Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru. The game will most likely be affected as heavy rain is making landfall in the city.

On the other hand, KKR's hopes of advancing to the playoffs were dashed with this washout. Having accumulated only 12 points from 13 matches, they have been officially eliminated from contention.

The defending champions, KKR, are now out of the playoff race after tonight's no-result match. Their season was marked by inconsistency and they struggled to maintain a winning streak.
