The weather in Ahmedabad deteriorated just as everyone was looking forward to Friday’s IPL 2023 opener between the four-time champion Chennai Super Kings and the defending champion Gujarat Titans. On the day of the match, the skies opened up, bringing heavy rain and a storm to the city. As angry, dark rain clouds gathered over the city, what began as a drizzle sufficient to cancel both teams’ practice sessions soon turned into a heavy downpour.

Although rain contributed to a six-degree drop in temperature not only in Ahmedabad but also in several other parts of the state, it did raise questions about whether the IPL 2023 opener between CSK and GT would go according to plan. Fortunately, the gauge for Friday night is nothing similar to Thursday, such a long ways with AccuWeather showing 0% possibilities of precipitation.

Having said that, the nature of the unanticipated rains that have fallen across the northern and western regions of the nation cannot be ruled out, but for the time being, everything appears to be fine. Friday will have a high temperature of 33 degrees during the day and a low temperature of 23 degrees during the evening and night. In addition, in contrast to Thursday, the likelihood of a thunderstorm has returned to 0%, ensuring our readiness for the highly anticipated IPL opener.
No rain also shuts out the possibility of the star-studded opening ceremony being impacted in any way. Actors Tamannah Bhatia, Rashmika Mandanna and singer Arijit Singh will be performing at the event starting 6 PM at the world’s largest Narendra Modi cricket stadium.
