The much-anticipated match has started to drown in deep uncertainty due to continuous rain in Ahmedabad, where Punjab Kings and Mumbai Indians are scheduled to face each other for a possible title shot.

Originally the game was scheduled to start on June 1. But that couldn't happen because of nonstop rain; covers are still on at the Narendra Modi Stadium to protect the surface as much as possible. Cricket fans are worried more because there is no reserve day for such an electrifying competition.

As alternatives, the organizers arranged multiple regulations so that both teams can perform with bat and ball, at least for a reduced number of overs. The rules can be applied as per the current scenario. As per the fresh reports coming out from the stadium, there will be high chances to arrange at least a 5-over side game to discover the name of the opponent for Royal Challengers Bengaluru for the final of IPL 2025.

Keeping an eye on the behavior of the weather, a 5-over side game is also under uncertainty. If even a 5-over-a-side game is also not possible by 11:56 pm, then the winner could be decided by a super over between Punjab Kings and Mumbai Indians. And if that is also not possible to arrange, then Shreyas Iyer's team will advance to the title decider clash, as they finished the group stage with the best numbers in the points table.

Else, Punjab go through to the final. #MIvsPBKS #PBKSvsMI

These are the playing conditions: 

- ⁠No reserve day available

- ⁠Additional 2 hours of buffer is available 

- If a 5 over game isn’t possible, they will play a super over.

- If Super over isn’t possible as well, PBKS qualify because they finished above Mumbai in league stage
