That huge win resulted in Rajasthan Royals dropping to the 2nd position due to their inferior run rate.
Due to Delhi’s heavy defeat, they slipped to the 9th position in the table with just Mumbai Indians behind them. Meanwhile, Royal Challengers Bengaluru were the recipient of an unlikely assist from KKR’s victory as they rose to 8th.
Chennai Super Kings, Lucknow Super Giants, Gujarat Titans occupied the 3rd, 4th and 5th place respectively. Sunrisers Hyderabad, meanwhile, stayed rooted in the 6th position while Punjab Kings rose to 7th.
