IPL 2023: The official Twitter handle of the Gujarat Titans (GT) has given an update on Bengaluru weather and it's not at all favourable for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) fans. Notably, RCB need a win in their last league match to qualify for the IPL 2023 playoffs.
In case it continues to rain in Bengaluru and the match is called off. RCB will be forced to share a point and Mumbai Indians (MI) would go through if they beat Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in their ongoing match at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
