What if KKR vs SRH IPL 2024 final gets washed out? Kolkata or Hyderabad - who'll win? Check all possibilities
KKR vs SRH IPL 2024 Final: The 2024 season of the Indian Premier League is down to its final game, as Shreyas Iyer-led Kolkata Knight Riders and Pat Cummins-led Sunrisers Hyderabad will face off at the grand MA Chidambaram Stadium on Sunday. The IPL fans are excited about the upcoming thriller, but the latest cyclone advisory by the Indian Metrological Department (IMD) has raised the suspense. The weather department has issued a forecast that Cyclone Remal is set to make landfall in Bangladesh and several parts of India on May 26.
While the state of West Bengal is expected to bear the brunt of the cyclone, other states near the Bay of Bengal could also experience sudden and significant weather changes. The fans are worried that the rain prediction may affect the IPL 2024 final, as it did last year, when the CSK vs. GT final was pushed to a reserve day, which was also affected by the rain.
