Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will renew their rivalry on Saturday (May 3) in the 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL) at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru in a contest that is now seeing a major rain threat as the Garden City has hit with rain over the last few days which has led to the practice session of the two teams being cut short. While this a contest between the team with the joint-most points this season and the last-placed side, there is excitement around the country as Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni go head-to-head once again as the Southern rivals face each other. Bengaluru Weather On May 3 - RCB VS CSK IPL 2025 The news from Bengaluru is grim as there is heavy rain in the city on the eve of the match. On the day of the big clash, there is a chance of around 47-51% chance of showers. While the Chinnaswamy Stadium has the best drainage system in the country, and has the capability to start a match within minutes of the rain stopping, there are high chances of constant showers during the match tomorrow. This is the first match between the two sides in Bengaluru since a dramatic clash last year, which is among the greatest matches in the league's history as both sides played each other in their respective last league stage match of the season. The match was a virtual quarter-final as the winner set to finish in fourth place. Ultimately, RCB held their nerve to win a last-over thriller and ensured their Net Run Rate (NRR) went past CSK as they completed a remarkable turnaround to win their sixth match in a row. Earlier this season, RCB beat CSK by 50 runs at Chepauk (MA Chidambaram Stadium) in what was the first instance of the Rajat Patidar-led side beating the five-time champions in Chennai since 2008.
