Rajasthan Royals are the second team to qualify for the IPL 2024 knockouts. But the job isn’t done for them as the hunt for the top spot still continues. As Sanju Samson and Co look to return to winning ways, the weather in Guwahati can cause quite a trouble for them. The weather is hot, humid and there is a hint of rain in the air.

Following which the GT vs KKR clash was washed off without the toss taking place. And with a hint of rain in Guwahati, a rain curtailed game can seriously hurt RR.

Will rain affect RR vs PBKS clash?
As per the latest weather report according to Accuweather, there is 13% chance of rain during the game in the evening. Moreso, there is high humidity of 77% during the game. While the chance of rain is low, it can still play it’s part in disrupting the game.
The main issue comes with the chances of rain both in the morning and in the afternoon. If there is a short shower before the game, the covers will be put on and there is a big chance of a delayed start.
The Rajasthan Royals still have a chance of making it to the top spot. They will need 2 wins. A win today takes them to 18 points. And since their last match is against KKR, the winner will secure the top spot of the IPL 2024 Points Table.
