Rajasthan Royals climbed to the top of the Indian Premier League 2026 standings following a convincing 27-run victory over
Mumbai Indians in a rain-affected 11-over clash in Guwahati on Tuesday. With three wins from three matches, Rajasthan Royals lead the table with six points and a formidable net run rate of +2.403.
Mumbai Indians, on the other hand, dropped to seventh place after the defeat. They have played three matches so far, registering just one win while losing twice, and their net run rate of -0.715 reflects an inconsistent start to the season.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru sit third with two wins in two games and hold the best net run rate in the competition at +2.501.
Delhi Capitals are fourth, also unbeaten with two victories from two outings. They have four points and a solid net run rate of +1.170. In fifth place are Sunrisers Hyderabad, who have one win and two defeats from three matches but maintain a positive net run rate of +0.275.
Lucknow Super Giants have moved up to sixth, overtaking Mumbai Indians on net run rate. They have one win and one loss from two matches, with two points and a net run rate of -0.542.
Further down, Kolkata Knight Riders are placed eighth with one point from three games, including a no result, and a net run rate of -1.964. Gujarat Titans are ninth, yet to secure a win in two matches and carrying a net run rate of -0.424.
At the bottom are Chennai Super Kings, who have endured a difficult start, losing all three matches so far. They remain without a point and have the lowest net run rate in the league at -2.517.
