That's all from our side for this game. See you soon.

Nikhil Agarwal: "Rajasthan is the most unlucky team in this IPL. Knocked bails 3 times but the bails did not fall completely, Mankading, and lost the final moments of every lost games."

Earlier, Shreyas Gopal dismissed both Kohli and de Villiers once again and, in fact, went on to complete the hat-trick with Stoinis' wicket. In case you are wondering, the hat-trick still stands.

12.24 Guess what? It's raining again and that's it! The game has been called off when we were just ten balls away from a full game. The teams share a point each and that means RCB have been knocked out, even mathematically. However, the result hurts Rajasthan Royals. They would have backed themselves to score those 22 off 10 balls.

Yadav to Samson, no run, length ball outside off, swinging away as Samson looks to hit it on the up but misses. An appeal by the bowler for caught-behind but nothing on the UltraEdge

12.05am Rajasthan need 63 to pick two points. As per IPL Match Playing Conditions, a bowler can bowl a maximum of two overs in game reduced to five to ten overs. But are teams aware of that? Anyway, Umesh will start for RCB. Sanju Samson to face.
