Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) marched into the final of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 as they beat the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) by eight wickets with 38 balls to spare in Qualifier 1 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. They will await their opponents who will be decided by the Qualifier 2 in Chennai. SRH will play against the winner of Eliminator (RR vs RCB) in Qualifier 2.
Chasing the target of 160, Kolkata never fell like lagging as Venkatesh Iyer and Shreyas Iyer hit fifties and made most use of the ordinary Hyderbad side in the field which dropped easy chances.
Earlier, opting to bat first, Hyderabad were struck on the on second ball as Mitchell Starc clean-bowled Travis Head. They never recovered from that despite Rahul Traipthi scoring 55 0ff 35 balls. However, he was run out and only Pat Cummins'; late surge of 30 off 24 balls managed to get Hyderabad past 150.
Apart from Cummins and Tripathi, Heinrich Klaasen (32) and Abdul Samad (16) were the only other SRH players to get into the double digits. Mitchell Starc took three wickets in the powerplay and finished with figures of 3/34 while Varun Chakaravarthy took two wickets.
