At the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Friday, SunRisers Hyderabad defeated Rajasthan Royals by a margin of 36 runs in the IPL 2024 Qualifier 2 match. Thus, SRH scheduled a final match at the same location with the Kolkata Knight Riders. The summit conflict is scheduled on May 26. Speaking of the match on Friday, SRH managed to score a respectable 175 for 9 in 20 overs despite the pace tandem of Trent Boult and Avesh Khan taking three wickets apiece. After RR won the toss and chose to bowl, Sandeep Sharma (2/25), in addition to Boult (3/45) and Avesh Khan (3/27), was discovered to have recorded his name among those who took wickets.
Heinrich Klaasen led SRH with 54 off 34 balls. Travis Head (34) and Rahul Tripathi (37) both made starts but were unable to finish. In response, Shahbaz Ahmed’s 3 for 23 helped reduce RR to 139 for 7 in 20 overs.
After winning the qualifier 2, SRH will now face Kolkata Knight Riders in the finals of IPL 2024 on Sunday at the same stadium. On May 21, KKR easily overcame SRH to move on to the grand final. However, as they placed among the top two teams in the points standings and advanced to the IPL 2024 final, SRH was given the opportunity to make amends.
