The weather forecast of the Qualifier-1 between Rajasthan Royals and Gujarat Titans is not looking great. This is a time of Kalbaisakhi (strong winds accompanied by rain) showers in Bengal. The humidity is expected to be on the higher side in this match, and there is a chance of scattered rainfalls in this match.

According to Accuweather, the temperature will vary from 28 degrees celsius to 34 degrees celsius. There are 35% chances of rain between 7-9 pm, 49% between 9-10 pm and it increases to 54% after 10 pm.

The best part of the Eden Gardens is the drainage system. After the new surface layover at the ground, if the rain stops even for 30 minutes, the ground will be ready for the play. If even a five-over match is not possible, the match will be decided by the super over, and if super over is also not possible, Gujarat Titans will qualify for the final.
