Rain Halts KKR-PBKS IPL 2025 Clash at Eden Gardens​

Persistent downpour leads to first no-result match of the season; both teams share points.​

The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 match between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) was abandoned due to persistent rain at Eden Gardens on Saturday, April 26. This marks the first no-result game of the season.​

Batting Highlights:

PBKS, opting to bat first, posted a formidable 201/4 in their allotted 20 overs. Openers Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh set the tone with a 120-run partnership. Arya contributed 69 runs off 35 balls, while Prabhsimran added 83 runs from 49 balls. Glenn Maxwell and Shreyas Iyer provided late momentum, taking PBKS to their final total.​

Rain Interruption:

KKR’s chase began with a single over, scoring 7/0, before heavy rain halted play. Despite efforts to resume, the weather conditions led to the match being called off after a delay exceeding the one-hour mark, resulting in no further play.​

Points Distribution:

With no result, both teams were awarded one point each. PBKS remains in the fourth spot with 11 points from five wins, three losses, and one no result. KKR holds the seventh position with seven points from three wins, five losses, and one no result.​

The match was rescheduled following security concerns, as authorities cited inadequate protection for a crowd of 65,000 during the festival period.

The rain-impacted fixture adds to the season’s unpredictability, highlighting the challenges posed by weather conditions in scheduling and conducting matches.
