0

Both the teams, four times champions Chennai Super Kings and defending champions Gujarat Titans would be all pepped up to win the summit clash on Sunday, but what if the weather decides to wash away the excitement? With chances of around two hours of showers at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad it could, although not quite likely, go down that way.

Well, there is a provision for a reserve day — Monday — if both sides don’t get to play at least five overs. But it doesn’t come without its conditions.

Even if a single ball is bowled on Sunday evening, the match would be deemed to have started. In this case, if the game is left for tomorrow, it would be picked up right where it is left.

However, if the match hasn’t started, even if the toss is already done, there would be a new match on Monday with a new toss and the captains will also get to change their sides should they want to.

Although the chance of this happening isn’t very high, given the showers on the same ground during the second qualifier between Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians have certainly raised some concern about this.

Meanwhile, the men in yellow would be ready to get their fifth title to their name to come on the same foot as the title leaders Mumbai Indians.

And they’ll be met by Hardik Pandya’s men, who have made their way into the final after being taken down by Chennai in the first qualifier, and now will have their eyes set on their second title on the trot.
