It has been raining continuously in Bengaluru for the last two days and there is a possibility of rain continuing on the day of the match as well. The effect of rain was also seen on the training sessions of both these teams. The CSK team could practice only for 45 minutes a day before the match. However, after the rain stopped, they started practice once again.
On the other hand, Royal Challengers Bangalore had to cancel their training session due to rain.
