Earlier, umpires Doctrove and Asnani inspected the pitch twice at &: 45 pm and 8:15 pm and decided to start full quota over match at 9 pm.

RCB's stand-in captain Virat Kohli opted to field after winning the toss. Just as the match was about to begin, the heavens opened up once again and this time it was fairly consistent drizzle. It only got worse with passage of time as the frustrated spectators at the Chinnaswamy headed back home.
