RR Vs MI LIVE Blog And Commentary, IPL 2026: Heavy Rain In Guwahati; Check Weather Forecast

The good news from the centre is, the rain has stopped and the outfield has not taken any fresh beating. There are water puddles near the boundary line and near the square which the groundstaff are trying to dry up as quickly as possible.

The latest news from the centre is the rain has stopped but the outfield has taken a heavy beating. The covers are still on and the groundstaff are trying to prepare the ground for some action. Currently it looks like toss will be inevitably delayed.

The most recent IPL washout in Guwahati was Match 70 of the 2024 season between Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). Despite a massive crowd turning up for the final league game of the season, persistent rain prevented even the toss from taking place initially. Though the rain eventually stopped and a 7-over-per-side game was briefly on the cards, a second shower forced the match to be abandoned without a single ball being bowled.

On April 06, Monday, the KKR vs PBKS match at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata got washed out due to rain. With Guwahati facing heavy rain ahead of the RR vs MI match, there is a possibility that we see two consecutive washouts in IPL 2026.

The latest development is it has been dark in Guwahati due to cloud cover since the afternoon and now it is raining heavily. Pieces of hail are also spotted and it continues to pelt down. For starters, it is looking like the toss will be delayed. Hopefully, the rain stops soon. Check Guwahati weather forecast here.
