Todays Kolkata VS Chennai IPL match rained off!!




Kolkata Knight Riders VS Chennai Super Kings match result


Steady rain caused the abandonment of the Indian Premier League match between Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders without a ball bowled at Newlands Saturday.Rain fell throughout most of the day and it never seemed likely that play would get under way.It was raining since morning and the match was called off without a ball being bowled.Both the teams badly needed a win as each of them has lost two matches out of three.Chennai Super Kings now stand at third position in the points table due to a superior net run rate while Kolkata Knight Riders occupy fifth spot.

But players and a handful of spectators were kept waiting for two hours 45 minutes after the scheduled start before the umpires decided that it would not be possible to play even the minimum number of five overs a side.Bad weather continued to play spoilsport at the Newlands cricket ground in Cape Town as continuous rain washed out the Indian Premier League match between Kolkata Knight Riders and Chennai Super Kings on Saturday.Brendon McCullum led Kolkata and Mahendra Singh Dhoni led Chennai got one point each after the abandonment of the tie.
