The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 match 13 between Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Mumbai Indians (MI) was delayed due to rain at the Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati.
There was already concern around the game after the previous match between Kolkata Knight Riders and Punjab Kings was washed out at Eden Gardens because of continuous rain.
The good news is that the rain has now stopped in Guwahati, and the ground staff are preparing the field for play. However, due to the delay, the match has been shortened.

The power play has also been adjusted and will last for 3.2 overs. While it may look unusual, that is the official power play length for this shortened match.
