It has been a long wait tonight but in the end both the teams will get a point each with no play possible. That marks the end of GT's journey in this tournament even though they can still play party-poopers against SRH in their last league game. KKR will now put their feet up and prepare for much bigger things. 3 spots remaining and 6 teams are still in contention for the playoffs as we are now into the last week of the league phase. It is still wide open, another crucial encounter awaits you with DC taking on LSG tomorrow. From here, this is the pair of Sourabh and Arya taking your leave. Keep following Sportskeeda!
22:38 Local Time : Ohh scratch that, here is the inevitable. Both the captains have shaken hands and that means that the match has been officially called off. This also means that GT have been officially knocked out of the tournament. This would be heartbreaking for GT and their fans as they still had a very slim chance of making it to the playoffs but the rain has played spoilsport. But more importantly, the points will be split here and that would secure a top-2 spot for KKR, their first one after 10 years.
22:35 Local Time - Positive news, folks! The stumps are been put in place and the roller is doing the work on the pitch as well. Both the captains are now exchanging tokens in the support of GT's campaign against breast cancer
22:33 Local Time : The pitch has now also been uncovered. GT captain and coach, Gill and Nehra, are having a feel of it as the groundsmen continue their work. All the players are out in the middle and the positive at this stage is that there are no umbrellas that can be seen
10:22 pm local time : The covers are coming off. This seems like the last throw of the dice from the umpires as there is still a very light drizzle at the moment. The groundsmen are putting in a big shift here to make the conditions suitable for play, the super sopper is in full flow as well and there seems to be an air of urgency in the middle. We should be having an official word soon.
10:13 PM local time : Live visuals show both the skippers, Shubman and Shreyas having a chat out in the middle. Both of them are in their training kits as the rain continues to come down in the form of a drizzle. It has been that kind of a night so far and it is close to coming to a dull end.
10:10 PM local time: The rain continues to pour down. The officials are having a chat but the signs are not promising. We are just about to hear the inevitable.
09:45 PM local time: Nothing positive to report from the ground. The rain continues and so is the wait. The crowd is still waiting eagerly but it's almost getting to the situation where the match can get called off anytime soon.
09:30 PM local time: The rain has strengthened a little bit and it's not looking very good to be honest. Fair bit of lightning happened just about two minutes ago and it's highly unlikely that the game will commence. No official update yet but it is unlikely we will get a match.
09:25 PM local time: The drizzle has gotten heavier and we are nearing the cut off time. It's still almost one and a half hours away from now but remember we are yet to have the toss. The groundsmen will need a considerable amount of time to clear the puddles on the outfield. For now, things looking very bleak and we are getting close to the territory where we might witness the first washout of the season.
Gautam Gambhir has been one of the most inspirational leaders in the history of the IPL. It has been under his mentorship that KKR has gone from strength to strength in this edition. As we wait for the rain to relent, switch 👇 to relieve one of the regrets of Gautam Gambhir from his tenure as a KKR skipper which he narrated inSK Match ki Baat.
9 PM local time: Some activities going around in the ground. Just a bit of a drizzle around so the wait continues. We have started to lose overs from 8:35 PM so it will be a shortened if it does happen. We can see some puddles around the ground so the game is not starting anytime soon. The groundsmen will take time to clear the water logging. A gentle reminder that the cut-off time for a five-over game is 10:56 PM. We are yet to have the toss.
Kartik: "Imagine guys if Bumrah bowled Travis head with a Yorker in T20 World Cup and his stumps goes for a long walk what would the reaction of Indian fans it will definitely breathe fire in social media let's hope every Indian wish will become true anyone love it Travis head goes for a duck."
Jeet : "Harshal to Dhoni, clean bowled first ball, only bowler who dismissed Dhoni this season." Well that was not something you see often Jeet, so even more credit to Harshal for managing to what no other bowler has done this season.
Arjit : "King Kohli's no look six to Ishant Sharma from yesterday's match and their friendly banter." That was pretty cool, isn't it Arjit?
Babai : "While there is no doubt about the fact that yorkers are the most lethal delivery in cricket but it's always a delight especially as an Indian fan to see a young Indian bowler breaching the defence of an Australian with sheer pace and lateral movement. For me Mayank Yadav's ball to Cameron Green should be the ball of the tournament." Indeed Babai, that spell from Mayank Yadav has to be one of the best in this year's league.
Medhansh Kamra : "Matheesha Pathirana to Tristan Stubbs - What a beauty it was! Best ball for me in IPL 2024" - that is a very good pick, Medhansh.
Sharmaji : "My favourite moment has to be Virat hitting that monstrous six to Arshdeep" - I'm sure you are not alone, Sharmaji.
The latest we can start a five-over game is 10:56 PM local time.
