Chris Morris (17 not out) and Shreyas Iyer (0 not out) were at the crease.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Earlier, Rajasthan rode Rahane&#39;s 45 to get to 153\/5 when the skied opened up in the 17th over with Rahul Tripathi (15) and Krishnappa Gowtham (2) at the crease.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>For Delhi, left-arm spinner Shahbaz Nadeem returned best figures of 2\/34 while New Zealand pacer Trent Boult and India fast bowler Mohammed Shami also picked up a wicket apiece.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Rahane stitched together a 62-run stand with Sanju Samson (37) for the third wicket while wicketkeeper Jos Buttler (29) and Tripathi joined hands for another important partnership of 38 runs for the fifth wicket.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Rajasthan lost opener D&#39;Arcy Short (6) early to a run out and then Trent Boult got the outside edge of star England all-rounder Ben Stokes (16) for keeper Pant to take an easy catch.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Nadeem castled Samson to bring an end to his association with Rahane, scalping the captain&#39;s wicket also with a away-turning delivery which the batsman tried to work over midwicket but have a catch to Chris Morris at point.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Buttler was removed by Shami just when the England stumper was looking good to go big before rain interrupted play.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Brief scores: Rajasthan Royals 153\/5 in 17.5 overs (Ajinkya Rahane 45, Sanju Samson 37; Shahbaz Nadeem 2\/34) beat Delhi Daredevils 60\/4 (Rishabh Pant 20; Ben Laughlin 2\/20) by 10 runs via D\/L method.<\/p>\r\n",
