Mainly clear, or at worst partly cloudy, skies are forecast for this evening’s IPL cricket game at Hyderabad.

Hosts Deccan Chargers will take on Royal Challengers, Bengaluru, at the match scheduled to begin at 4 pm at the Rajiv Gandhi stadium, Uppal.

This peninsular Indian city is weather-prone during the pre-monsoon season.

It is evidenced in the presence of heat wave conditions to the southwest as also the presence of a trough of lower pressure that cuts across the State of Andhra Pradesh at large.

Mainly north-northwesterly winds are likely to become continental dry northwesterly winds as the day progresses.

Day temperatures could look up to 43 deg Celsius and humidity at 40 per cent. All in all, dry and hot climes are forecast during the hours of play.
