Royal challengers Bengalur moved significantly closer to securing a place in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 the playoffs after a continuous rain led to abandonment of your long -awaited conflict against Kolkat Knight Riders at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium on Saturday (May 17th).
Royal Challengers Bengaluru edge closer to the playoffs despite rinsing
Despite waiting for the waiting and several inspections, the match officials eventually lost their options except to give up the game. The disappointment was obviously among the players and spectators, especially given the high roles involved in fixing. Although no ball was leaning due to continuous rains, the individual point obtained from rinsing took RCB number on 17 points from 12 games, which firmly set them on top of the points.
With the remaining two league matches, the equation is now easy for Bengalur, only one victory will be enough to guarantee their passing rounds. RCB should face Sunrizers Hyderabad, WHO have already been eliminated from the playoffs claim, on May 2nd at home, followed by installation against Lucknow Super Giants On May 27, the consistency of the team, the heavyweight, and a return attack on bowling, held them in command form as the league enters its last phase.
Kolkat Knight Riders Eliminated from IPL 2025 Playing
In contrast to Bengaluru’s ascending path, defending the KKR champions, they saw that their defense of the title was officially completed with the result of rinsing. The individual point added to their total number leaves them to 11 points from 13 matches, and even the victory in their last league match would only take 14 points against SRH, which was less than the cross -section needed for the playoffs. The KKR -Air Campaign 2025, marked by inconsistency and missed capabilities, never gained momentum. Despite the flashes of gloss in individual performances, the team failed to achieve enough victory to cause top competitors. The result of the rain serves as symbolically close to their faded campaign, undergoing a season that never met expectations after their victory in the 2024 title. No more than a pride in playing in his last exit, Kkr will look forward to renovation for next season.
Here’s how the fans reacted:
Too bad it has to end up for this @Kkriders. They had moments they could take away, but they just couldn’t put it together.

Disappointing the end of the season for the defense of the KKR champion. We hope to bounce stronger next year.
RCB, have an invisible ‘q’ in front of them – they will soon appear, depending on other matches results.– Irfan Pathan (@irfanpathan) May 17, 2025
Really hearing when you see fans appear in white in honor @imvkohliExceptional test heritage. A simple but strong tribute to the player who inspired the generation and raised the crunch of a red ball in India. #Virakohli pic.twitter.com/xg2abwcvno

Next IPL, knights will not be kind. We come with the intention – to dominate, destroy and lift that trophy. 🏆
KKR forever! 💜#Amikkr @Kkriders @Iamsrk @IAM_JUHI

Our heart comes out @Kkriders – A difficult and sad exit for last year’s champions. It would hurt less if they fought. As regards @RcbtweetsNo need to celebrate too much – happiness played a bigger role than a fight in your play in your playoffs. #Kkr #Rcb @Ipl
