Rajasthan Royals’ coaching and support staff have come out onto the ground, as super soppers continue to run over the covers to remove the collected water.
Taking off the covers while water was still accumulated on them has caused puddles to form in several areas of the ground. This could slow down the drying process and extend the delay before play can restart.
The umpire calls for the covers to be removed! Looks like we could finally enjoy a match!
The rain has almost stopped, with only a few light drops still falling on the covers. The entire groundstaff is now out on the field, while one of the umpires is in conversation with the curator, assessing the conditions.
Just few hours of waiting time left. The cut-off time for a 5-over match is 10:56 PM IST.

Out of the 7 IPL matches Guwahati hosted in recent times, 3 have been affected by rain! Should the BCCI consider now?
The rain has lightened a little, and the groundstaff are promptly removing the water that had gathered along the edges of the covers.

Looks like, we might have to wait for this duel!
BCCI chief curator Ashish Bhowmick and ACA curator Abhijit Bhattacharya are in the middle of the ground discussing conditions as the drizzle persists, with fellow curator Mukul Kalita joining them. Meanwhile, two super soppers remain in operation despite the ongoing rain as per news coming in.
Keeps on coming back!
Light rain has returned, with only the pitch area covered while the rest of the ground remains exposed. The drizzle is gradually picking up, though the super sopper continues working to dry the outfield. Groundstaff and the curator have stepped away for now. Meanwhile, Rajasthan Royals players like Jaiswal and Sooryavanshi are seen relaxing in the dressing room with Vikram Rathour, while Mumbai Indians players and staff are not visible at the moment.
Groundsmen working in full swing!
