Mumbai-Rajasthan match abandoned due to rain

Rajasthan Royals and Mumbai Indians split points after their Indian Premier League match was called off due to persistent rain at Kingsmead ground here today.

Not even a single ball could be played due to steady drizzle. The Mumbai team, after gaining one point from today's washed out tie, have moved to the top of the table with three points in their kitty.

The Sachin Tendulkar-led side had defeated last year's runners-up Chennai Super Kings in their opening match on Saturday.

Defending champions Rajasthan, who began their campaign with a crushing defeat at the hands of Royal Challenger Bangalore, opened their account and stand at number seven in the table.
