The toss has already been delayed due to heavy showers. Match officials are closely monitoring conditions as uncertainty looms over the start of play. Under IPL playing conditions, if a match is abandoned without a ball being bowled, both teams are awarded one point each.

If play begins but is interrupted by rain, officials attempt to complete the match by reducing the number of overs. In such scenarios, the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method is used to revise targets, particularly if the second innings is affected.

However, for a result to be declared, a minimum of five overs must be bowled in the second innings. If that requirement is not met due to continued rain, the match is called off and both sides share a point.

Given that no play has started yet in Guwahati, there remains a window for a shortened contest if weather conditions improve later in the evening. Otherwise, the teams may have to settle for a point each.

Officials are expected to wait for a break in the rain before making a final decision.
