Rajasthan is at the top with six wins in seven games. A win for Kolkata would have pushed them to the top of the table as their net run rate of +1.688 was way better than RR's +0.767 at the start of the game. Now, afterwards, KKR remains at number two.
Earlier, Hyderabad remained in the top four after a win against Royal Challengers Bengaluru as they could not better their net run rate than Chennai Super Kings, who are currently in the third position.
However, after this loss, Bengaluru remained at the bottom of the table. They could have got even with Delhi Capitals (DC), Mumbai Indians (MI) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) at four points had they won the game.
