But with the city of Bengaluru dealing with a huge water crisis, RCB's home games could be under threat. As per Insidesport, The Karnataka State Cricket Association is planning a meeting to address the issue. “There will be a meeting conducted on this issue. Until then, no statement can be given regarding that matter,” the KSCA official was quoted by InsideSport.
