IPL 2024: Rajasthan Royals pay hefty price for their dip in form late into the tournament, as the former table toppers managed to finish outside the Top 2 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 after their fixture against Kolkata Knight Riders at the Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati gets abandoned due to rain. Due to their victory in the afternoon fixture against Punjab Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad have now finished in the second place and will now play table-toppers KKR in the Qualifier 1.
