How will the weather be in Bengaluru on March 28?

There is definitely a slight concern about the weather before the opening match of IPL 2026 to be held on Saturday. According to reports, there is a possibility of rain in Bengaluru during the day i.e. in the afternoon, which may have some impact on the preparations for the match. However, it is a matter of relief that in the evening, when the match will be played, the probability of rain is said to be only 5 percent. In such a situation, the risk of the match being completely washed out is almost negligible.

probability of dew falling

Even though there is little risk of rain during the match, dew can prove to be a big factor in this match. There is a high possibility of dew falling at night in Bengaluru at the end of March. Due to the ball being wet, spinners have difficulty in making grip, which batsmen like Virat Kohli can take advantage of. In night matches, due to dew falling, it becomes easier to bat in the second innings, in such a situation teams often decide to bowl first after winning the toss.
