KKR Vs PBKS, IPL 2026: Match Called Off Due To Incessant Kolkata Rain

Kolkata Knight Riders and Punjab Kings shared a point apiece after rain forced the abandonment of their Indian Premier League 2026 match at the Eden Gardens on Monday (April 6). KKR captain Ajinkya Rahane won the toss and opted to bat, but his team suffered a setback in just the second over as Australian seamer Xavier Bartlett dismissed opener Finn Allen (6) and Cameron Green (4), leaving the hosts struggling at 16 for two. Rahane (8 not out) and wicketkeeper-batter Angkrish Raghuvanshi (7 not out) were attempting to stabilise the innings when rain halted the play at 25 for two after just 3.4 overs. Incessant downpour and the subsequent wet outfield meant no more play was possible, and KKR secured their first point after back-to-back losses.
