The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 playoffs are set to kick off on Tuesday with the Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad competing in the Qualifier 1. Kolkata have been one of the most dominant teams in this IPL with nine wins and three losses. Kolkata, however, have not played an IPL fixture since their 18-run victory against the Mumbai Indians. Both of their last games led to a no-result due to rainfall. In that match against Mumbai, Kolkata were bowling first after losing the toss. The two-time winners posted 157 runs in 16 overs, courtesy of a 42-run knock from Venkatesh Iyer. The next half saw Varun Chakaravarthy, Andre Russell and Harshit Rana combine for six wickets to curb Mumbai at 139/8, sealing a comfortable win. The Shreyas Iyer-led side will now be looking to extend their impressive run against Pat Cummins’ Hyderabad side for a chance to make the final.
The Kolkata Knight Riders will play the qualifying game against Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Tuesday, May 21. Hyderabad have also produced a terrific IPL 2024 campaign, winning eight of 14 matches. They beat the Punjab Kings by four wickets in their final game of the group stage, sealing their spot in Qualifier 1.
