Over the last few matches that have been played in this city, two threats have been omnipresent. One is of course, the rain, while the other is that of a Bangalore (Bangalore) win. There indeed was a rain-enforced stoppage on Sunday night in the match against Kolkatabut one that lasted 33 Mumbainutes only. On the other hand, Bangalore, with recent scores of 205 and 175 on Chinnaswamy Stadium tracks that have been tough to bat on, have threatened for longer periods but mostly failed to cross the line.
