It&#8217;ll take about 75 minutes for the ground to clear up. 10:56pm local is the latest a five-over game can start.</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading">Weather Conditions at Eden Gardens</h3><p>The iconic Eden Gardens, known for its passionate cricketing atmosphere, is shrouded in inclement weather. Persistent heavy rains and thunderstorms have engulfed the stadium, casting a shadow of uncertainty over the scheduled match. Despite brief interruptions, the lousy weather shows no signs of relenting, posing a challenge to the players and organizers alike.</p><p>See Also: <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/england-pacer-james-anderson-confirms-his-retirement-date">England pacer James Anderson confirms his retirement date</a></p><h3 class="wp-block-heading">Stakes for Kolkata Knight Riders</h3><p>For Kolkata Knight Riders, the stakes couldn&#8217;t be higher. Currently positioned at the top of the IPL standings with 16 points from 11 matches, a victory in this encounter would solidify their spot in the playoffs.</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading">Mumbai Indians&#8217; Opportunity</h3><p>Despite facing elimination from the tournament, Mumbai Indians have a golden opportunity to play spoilsport for KKR. A win against the table-toppers would dent their playoff aspirations and be a morale-boosting conclusion to their IPL campaign. With nothing to lose, MI enters the fray, intending to upset the apple cart.</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading">Consequences of Rain Interruption</h3><p>As the rain persists, speculation mounts regarding the match&#8217;s possible outcomes. If the weather continues to play spoilsport, the game could be abandoned, leading to a shared point for both teams. Such an outcome would have far-reaching implications for the IPL playoff race, creating a ripple effect across the points table.</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading">Impact on Playoff Race</h3><p>The scenario of a match abandonment presents a problem for IPL teams vying for playoff berths. For KKR, a shared point would propel them to 17 points in 12 matches, placing them in a favorable position for playoff qualification. Conversely, teams like Chennai Super Kings, Delhi Capitals, and Lucknow Super Giants would find their playoff hopes dimmed, unable to catch up to KKR&#8217;s tally.</p>]]></content:encoded>
