The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 finale held at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on May 26 was a night worth remembering. Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), who displayed commendable dominance throughout the tournament, emerged victorious in a much-anticipated face-off with Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), lifting the trophy after 10 years. The crowd reverberated with KKR chants as the Shreyas Iyer-captained team cruised past the 113-mark target, securing 114 runs with just two wickets down. KKR co-owner Shah Rukh Khan celebrated the victory with the players on the field. Later, SRK’s Bollywood contemporaries and industry friends congratulated the superstar on the historic triumph.
