KKR vs SRH: After 73 high-octane matches in the IPL 2024, we are in for the final clash of the tournament. The two-time champion Kolkata Knight Riders will lock horns with the 2016 winner Sunrisers Hyderabad. This clash will take place on Sunday evening at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. KKR have two trophies, while SRH have won. One of these two teams will get their hands on another IPL title.
The stage is set, and for the final showdown, the whole world will keep an eye on this game. It has been a while since these two teams had their hands on the trophy, and one of them will end this streak. This will be the third clash between these two teams this season. KKR have won the previous two matches and will be looking for a hat-trick, while Pat Cummins and his team will be looking for redemption.
IPL 2024: Who will win the final if the KKR vs SRH clash gets washed out?
Well, everything is set, and this match will decide which team will achieve success. However, for everyone, there is a sign of worry. It is not about the trams; it is about the weather. According to the weather forecast, there is a prediction of rain in the coming few days in Chennai. Notably, the IMD has confirmed the arrival of monsoons in the southern part of India, including Chennai in Tamil Nadu. So what if it rains on Sunday?
Well, as per the playing conditions in the IPL knockout, all the playoff matches have a reserve day. Which means if it rains on the scheduled day, the match can be played from the same point on the following day. Hence, if we do not get the game on Sunday, the play will start on Monday, which is the reserve day for the final. Similarly, the 2023 final was played over two days, where Chennai Super Kings beat Gujarat Titans to lift the trophy.
But what if it rains for both days? Now, there are chances that if the final goes onto the reserve day, that it can rain on Monday as well. So there is a possibility that both days can get washed out. So what will be the final decision? Well, if it happens and both days get washed out, then by default, Kolkata Knight Riders will be crowned the champions because they finished the group stage at the top, and SRH will have to end as runner-up.
