RCB vs MI: Rain Threat Looms Over Crucial IPL 2026 Clash in Raipur!

Royal Challengers Bengaluru will take on Mumbai Indians in a crucial IPL 2026 clash at Raipur on Sunday. After suffering defeats in their last two matches, RCB will aim to bounce back and strengthen their position in the points table. Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians, who are still mathematically alive in the playoff race, face a must-win situation to keep their hopes alive in the tournament.

However, rain threat has become a major concern ahead of the high-voltage encounter. Heavy showers lashed Raipur on Saturday evening, disrupting practice sessions of both teams. Although weather conditions improved on Sunday morning, light showers are still expected during the evening. If the match gets washed out, both teams will share one point each, which could officially end Mumbai Indians’ playoff chances. Historically, Mumbai Indians hold the edge with 19 wins in 35 matches against RCB, while Bengaluru have won 16 encounters.
