Gujarat Titans, Delhi Capitals, and Royal Challengers Bengaluru, all with 12 points, hold the first three places respectively. 

The game began with Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh stitching a strong partnership of 120 runs, before captain Shreayas Iyer chipped in some runs in a partnership with Prabhsimran, helping the Kings post a total of 201/4 in 20 overs. Prabhsimran top scored with 83 while Priyansh scored 69. Vaibhav Arora topped the charts for the bowling side, picking 2 wickets for 34 runs from his quota of four overs. 

The chase began with KKR scoring seven of their first over, before the covers came on, and persistent rain and lightning led to the game being called off.
