The toss for the Indian Premier League (IPL) game between the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) on Sunday at Guwahati has been delayed due to rain.


KKR and RR are locking horns in the final league game of the IPL 2024. KKR is at the top spot with nine wins, three losses and a no result, giving them a total of 19 points. They will end up as the top-ranked team. However, RR, who lit up the IPL during the beginning and middle phases, have fallen off in the backend of the tournament with four successive losses. They are in third place with eight wins and five losses, giving them 16 points. A win would be crucial for them not only to get some confidence ahead of the playoffs, but also finish within top two.


The official X handle of the IPL gave an update on toss, saying, "Update from Guwahati Toss in the #RRvKKR clash has been delayed due to rain Stay tuned for further updates. #TATAIPL."
