Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have once again proved their ability and won the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 title. In the final match, KKR defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) by eight wickets and won their third IPL trophy.
The final match was played at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Batting first, the performance of SRH team was very disappointing. The entire team was reduced to only 113 runs. The highest run scorer in SRH’s innings was captain Kane Williamson, who contributed 32 runs.
But even his innings could not take the team to a respectable score. Kolkata’s bowlers performed brilliantly, in which Andre Russell and Mitchell Starc had special contributions. Russell took three wickets while Starc took two wickets.
Chasing the target of 113 runs, KKR batted aggressively and achieved the target in only 10.3 overs. KKR’s openers gave a great start to the team. Venkatesh Iyer and Shubman Gill made a brilliant partnership for the first wicket and put the team in a strong position. Venkatesh played an unbeaten inning of 48 runs while Shubhman Gill made an important contribution of 35 runs.
As soon as the victory was announced, there was an atmosphere of celebration in the KKR camp. Players and team staff celebrated this victory.
Captain Shreyas Iyer said while lifting the trophy, “This is the result of our team’s hard work and we are all very happy with this victory.” KKR players entertained the fans by dancing on the field and celebrating the victory.
On the other hand, there was an atmosphere of disappointment in the SRH camp. The crying face of team owner Kavya Maran was captured in the cameras. Kavya, who always supports her team and cheers them in the matches, could not hide her tears after this defeat. This emotional video of his went viral quickly on social media.
Kavya’s crying video received a variety of reactions on social media. Many fans shared posts apologizing to SRH for their defeat, while some expressed sympathy towards him. At the same time, some memes also went viral, which were based on the result of the match and Kavya’s reaction.
Even after the defeat of SRH, the fans continued to support the team and wished them all the best for the future. Despite this defeat, SRH performed brilliantly throughout the tournament and reached the final.
With this win, KKR has given its fans another chance to celebrate. The team’s players and management have reaped the rewards of their hard work and dedication, and they will hope to continue this success. On the other hand, SRH will need to learn from this defeat and come back stronger in the next season.
