Referee Champion Kkr Champions Champions (KKR) has crashed into the qualifying race in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 after their match was washed against Royal Chanders Bengaluru (RCB) due to the rain. No one ball was organized in the first match after the IPL 2025 resumption, as it maintained the heavy and continuous rain at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium under the covers throughout Saturday evening. As a result, both RCB and KKR get one point for each. This means that KKR can reach 14 points as a maximum, which will not be enough to secure the place of the qualifiers.
With Mumbai Indians in fourth place (MI) and Delhi Capitals (DC) fifth place (DC) later this season, it ensures that at least one of these two teams will definitely end over KKR.
Royal Bingaluru’s competitor, at the same time, the edge approaches the qualifying spot. The NO RCB result takes 17 points and supported at the top of the IPL 2025 table. However, the sports miracle can still see them on the elimination.
If the RCB loses their remaining matches, the capital won two games, PBKS One and MI won both, and this will leave three teams over 17 points, and the qualification will decrease to the net rate.
KKR has a disappointing season. After winning the dominant title in 2024, men in purple color lost three crucial Tris at the Mega auction, in the form of Captain Sherras Air, Pacer Mitchell Starc and Fener Phil Salt. KKR has suffered from consistency throughout the season. They lost five games from the first eight games under the leadership of the new Captain Ajinkya Rahane.
A match on its deserted land against the Punjab kings dealt with a major blow to KKR earlier this season, and now another deserted match has witnessed the exit.
Meanwhile, Gujarat Joghir and Punjab kings are also one victory away from securing qualifications to the qualifications, while Mumbai’s Indians need two wins definitely to ensure progress.
