Two Pro Kabaddi League matches that were scheduled to be held in Mumbai today at 8 pm and 9 pm have been postponed because of non-stop rains in the city. Pro Kabaddi League made the announcement via their official twitter handle after the players were left stranded on the team bus for hours.

The two clashes, Bengaluru Bulls vs U.P. Yoddha and U Mumba vs Gujarat Fortunegiants of VIVO Pro Kabaddi Season 5, scheduled to be held today at 8 pm and 9 pm respectively at the NSCI SVP Stadium in Mumbai have been postponed due to constant and heavy rains in Mumbai. The teams had left their respective hotels at 4 pm but due to the heavy traffic congestion, as a result of the rains, were not able to get anywhere close to the stadium by 8 pm. 

Pro Kabaddi official twitter handle tweeted at 8.13 pm to inform the fans about the last moment cancellation. No date has been provided by the PKL as of now with the tweet letting fans know that they will be given updates about the reallocation/refund of tickets.

In Zone B, Bengaluru Bulls are on the fourth spot whereas U.P. Yoddha are currently leading the table. In Zone A, with Gujarat Fortunegiants sitting pretty at the top, U Mumba will have to work really hard to win their first home game of the season in four matches.
