Which IPL team prevailed yesterday?

Gujarat became one of the two eliminated teams, along with the Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings.
At 10:56 p.m., three hours after the game was supposed to begin, rain prompted the umpires to call it quits before a ball was bowled. This IPL season’s first such incident was signaled by this decision.
