IPL 2024: Check the final league stage standings for Indian Premier League after match 70 between Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders on Sunday.

Sanju Samson is walking out and so is Shreyas Iyer. Both captains have shook hands and the match is finally over. Rajasthan will stay at no. three and will play Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the eliminator while Kolkata Knight Riders will take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in the first qualifier. 

Hold on, hold on. The rain is back guys. The covers are coming on, yet again. 

Shreyas Iyer won the toss and KKR will bowl first. 

10:30 - toss

10:45 - start

Seven overs a side 

Two overs powerplay 

Bowling split - three bowlers can bowl two overs and one can bowl one

Okay, so there will be an inspection at 10:25 PM. The pitch has been uncovered. 

Groundsmen have come on now much to the joy of the crowd here. The umpires are having an inspection as well. It is still drizzling though.

No change in the conditions. Can expect handshake soon. 

10:56 PM IST is the cut-off time for a minimum of 5-over game. 

Almost game over. With a below-par drainage in Guwahati, doesn’t look like we are going to have a game tonight. Fans have vacated the lower stands as there is water accumulating on the chairs as well.

-Santadeep Dey from Guwahati.

The groundstaffs have covered the pitch once more. It’s raining. AGAIN! Things don’t look good. It’s heavier than ever. They are hurriedly trying to cover the entire playing area again. 

Some good news folks! The covers are coming off the pitch. The rain’s gone, updates Santadeep Dey. 

A few groundsmen are inspecting some wet areas around the practice pitches and outfield now. 

Some checks being performed on the Spyder cam, which has been covered in a black plastic bag. Only the pitch and run-ups are under cover now. The ever so light drizzle persists. 

-Santadeep Dey from Guwahati.

Santadeep Dey pings again - They have started pulling the square covers away. Two soppers have jumped into action. 

There are little puddles forming on the covers, which have been laid across the field. The heavy downpour has relented and we are back to a slight drizzle.

The drizzle has translated into a heavy, heavy downpour now. There is around an hour to go though before we start losing overs. 

-Santadeep Dey from Guwahati.

Now you can also see an occasional flash of lightning light up the backdrop and as I type this, the drizzle has gotten heavier. This can’t be good. The stadium speakers are being covered in polythene bags now. 

-Santadeep Dey from Guwahati.

It’s still the same. The drizzle has persisted. But it’s so slight that the people don’t even have their umbrellas out yet. This may turn out to be a very frustrating wait. 

-Santadeep Dey from Guwahati.

Okay, so now that SRH has beaten PBKS comfortably, it has leapfrogged Rajasthan Royals and sits second in the points table, provisionally. RR will have to beat KKR if it wants to finish in second. 

Our reporter Santadeep Dey, who is present at the venue, has informed us that the toss has been delayed due to rain.
