Due to bad weather, the Kolkata Knight Riders charter flight from Lucknow to Kolkata was diverted twice, first to Guwahati and then to Varanasi on Monday night. Kolkata has to play a match against Mumbai Indians on May 11 at its home ground Eden Gardens. “KKR’s charter flight has been diverted to Guwahati due to bad weather in Kolkata. We have just landed here,” the franchisee said. An official statement said on Monday. However, shortly afterwards, he received “clearance to return to Kolkata”.

But then KKR posted another tweet: “Update 1:20 am: Flight diverted to Varanasi after another failed landing attempt in Kolkata due to bad weather. Current situation: At Lal Bahadur Shastri International Airport “

And finally, “Update at 3:00 am: KKR team will check-in to hotel in Varanasi for overnight stay. Return flight to Kolkata TBD on Tuesday (May 7) afternoon. Stay safe, Kolkata.”

KKR’s previous IPL 2024 match was in Lucknow, where they defeated LSG by an emphatic margin of 98 runs to top the table at the Ekana Stadium on Sunday.
