Temperature is rising high at Ahmedabad; IPL is set to get a new champion this season. Either Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) or Punjab Kings (PBKS) will be the fortunate team to hoist the elusive trophy, and the other team, the losing side, will have to wait more to shine their luck.

 In between discussions related to two finalists or about the ground, rain can play a spoilsport. As per the weather report, the Ahmedabad sky remains partly cloudy accompanied by gusty winds; chances of rain are not intense, but at this stage, no possibilities can be ruled out. So, even a drizzle can spoil the party if it is pouring continuously.

Unlike the qualifier matches or the eliminator game, for the high-octane final clash, the IPL governing council has granted a reserve. If, by any chance, the final match does not conclude according to the original plans, then the rest of the game will take place on the reserve day, which is the day after the original final match date. Which means the reserve day is on June 4.

Remember the IPL 2023 final match 

Cricket fans may still remember the final of the 2023 Indian Premier League, where Gujarat Titans and Chennai Super Kings were locked in a battle for the trophy, and CSK had the last smile. The final match was interrupted by rain at the same venue. Due to continuous rain, on the actual date the match did not take place and was pushed to the reserve day. 

The reserve day was also interrupted by rain, and to save the match, the DLS method was applied. Now, if both of the days are washed out due to rain, then Punjab Kings will be awarded as the winner because they finished the group stage as the table topper over Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
