KKR vs PBKS | Rain Wins, Twitter Reacts to Washed-Out Game

Rain had the final say in the 12th match of the IPL 2026. KKR and PBKS went against each other at the Eden Gardens, but rain gave a surprise. In the 4th over, the match was stopped and eventually it ended in a no result, giving one point each to both teams.

KKR vs PBKS: Kolkata Knight Riders and Punjab Kings went against each other in the 12th match of IPL 2026. This game didn't turn out to be as expected, as neither of the teams were able to unleash their best in the same. Some thought it would be KKR getting their first win of the campaign at their home ground, others thought it would be PBKS getting its third win.

The match started with KKR winning the toss and deciding to bat first. The team surely didn't have a good start to the game, as Finn Allen was dismissed for 6 and Cameron Green was dismissed for 4. With two quick wickets, Punjab Kings were looking forward to taking an advantage.

But the weather decided to change, and rain caused an interruption. The match was stopped at 3.4 overs, when KKR stood at the score of 25/2 and didn't resume. With the game ending in a no result, both teams were rewarded with a point each.

Here's how Twitter has reacted to this washout.

Free Point

With this game, Kolkata Knight Riders must be a lot happy as they have received a free point. But PBKS must be disappointed, as they lost a free point.

KKR Left Them Alone

Since KKR is also given a point now, only two teams stand with no points till now. And it is Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Titans.
