Bengaluru weather report for March 28 for RCB vs SRH match

Defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will be up against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the opening match of IPL 2026 at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Saturday 28. The game is unlikely to be affected by the weather as conditions are expected to remain clear throughout the game.

RCB will miss the services of star pacer Josh Hazlewood for Saturday’s match as he is yet to regain full fitness. In the wake of his unavailability, the franchise can back New Zealand pacer Jacob Duffy, who has a reasonable T20 record. RCB might also look to fit in Jacob Bethell who impressed in the T20 World Cup.

SRH will be without their skipper Pat Cummins for the initial matches. In his absence, Ishan Kishan will lead the team, while opener Abhishek Sharma would be the vice-captain. Kishan will look to carry on from where he left off in the T20 World Cup. With Cummins out of reckoning for the first few games, Hyderabad can try out England’s bowling all-rounder Brydon Carse.
