Rajasthan Royals takes on Kolkata Knight Riders in the Match 70 at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati for Sunday’s second game.
Rajasthan, which had been at the top of the points table for the majority of the season, is now in third place with 16 points.
For the Sanju Samson team to guarantee a second-spot finish in the points table, it needs to beat KKR.
If they beat KKR, they will move ahead of SRH in second place with 18 points and will play KKR again in Qualifier 1 in Ahmedabad on Tuesday otherwise the Pat Cummins-led Hyderabad will finish second.
There is also a threat of the match between Rajasthan and Kolkata being washed out. In this case, RR will finish third behind SRH.
