Pitch Report

Two teams that have epitomized how this season has been played are contesting the final. A red soil surface in use today - 63 meters and 70 meters square on either side while the straight hit is 77 meters long. Red clay tends to have a lot of bounce. It's a really well-prepared wicket and we could expect a high-scorer - could be 180 or even up to 190. Both finals we've seen at Chepauk before in 2011 and 2012 were high-scorers. Players will sit back and play into the gaps while using the bounce. There won't be a lot of spin but you will see significant bounce. You'll have to watch out as a batter against spin while playing unconventional shots and cutters will be in play. No dew expected again.

Commentary

En हि

An anti-climatic final to cap off what has been nothing short of an absolutely sensational season, and it is the Kolkata Knight Riders who are crowned champions. And with that, this long season comes to an end. Normally, the IPL would be followed by a lull in cricket action but international T20 cricket is here to dominate our screens as team India gears up for the T20 World Cup, starting next month. That's all we have for you from our IPL coverage. We sincerely hope you enjoyed every single moment that we brought to you and we can't thank you enough for being a part of this journey. Join us back for the T20 World Cup. Until then, this is adios from Shashwat, Arya, Rajarshi, Maanas, Sooryanarayanan and the entire team at Sportskeeda. Good night and see you around soon!

Wow! It began at this very venue on March 22 with the defending champions Chennai Super Kings hosting Royal Challengers Bengaluru. And it came to a point where those very two teams fought it out for the last playoff spot with RCB proceeding in fourth spot. That, after they won one out of their first eight games and when the points table wore two distinct halves. What happened thereafter though summed up the topsy-turvy nature of the T20 format and the IPL in general with twists and turns aplenty.

It was quite a record-breaking season - the most sixes, the highest total (broken twice by the way) and the most hundreds in a season. Records tumbled left, right and center as bowlers in particular were rendered clueless. The impact substitution rule made its presence felt yet again with teams making full use of it to bully bowlers and bat deep but as the tournament went along, the bowlers found a way back as well.

Despite this rollercoaster ride, one team always stayed in the upper echelons of the table with a stupendous net run-rate. They finished at the top and humbled the Sunrisers Hyderabad in both the first Qualifier and the final. And the Kolkata Knight Riders have duly been crowned champions for a third time. Two disappointing campaigns in 2022 and 2023 later, they have roared back in style to remind the world as to why they are multiple-time winners in the IPL. Spare a moment of course for the Sunrisers who were stupendous in their own right. They've endured three horrible seasons in the lead-up to this one and now, they've come within touching distance of tasting glory. A season they can be mighty proud of though as they move ahead into what could be a mega auction year!

All you fans in Kolkata and Knight Riders around the world, this is your moment. It's taken ten years for this to come to fruition again but your captain Shreyas Iyer walks up to the stage to receive the IPL 2024 trophy from Mr. Roger Binny and Mr. Jay Shah. The rest of the Knight Riders join their captain and this is it - confetti all around as Shreyas Iyer holds the trophy aloft with his teammates roaring in joy and ecstasy. The support staff now joins them even as Rinku Singh holds the trophy up before Bharat Arun and Gautam Gambhir pose with the trophy in the middle of the frame. These celebrations will go long and hard into the night as they should - two months of toil has culminated in glory that KKR and their fans will savor for a long, long time to come.

Shreyas Iyer (Kolkata Knight Riders captain): Absolutely comprehensive to be honest. This is what we demanded from the team and everyone stood up on the right occasion. We got to bowl first as well. The wait was so long, it was more than the match. We played like invincible throughout the season. There is so much to cherish right now. It is pleasing and the performance has been flawless throughout. I am running out of words. We have been tremendous right from game 1 and when we stepped up today, all we demanded was to back each other. The game could have gone either way - they have been playing some fantastic cricket. Thanks to SRH as well, the way they played throughout the season. That's when all the big players stand up (on Starc). He has never shown any complacency in his work ethics. Phenomenal work ethics - something to learn from. He's (Russell) got the magic wand. He's waiting for me to call him and I pass him the ball. He has been lucky for us. He has picked up wickets for us whenever he has bowled. Those guys (Venkatesh and openers) made it easy for us to go out there and finish the game. Every individual has been stepping up at the right time. No individual performance has gotten us here. It has been flawless season for us and hope we continue this next season too.

And now, it's time for the champions - the Kolkata Knight Riders - to receive their awards. Chandrakant Pandit, the head coach, comes up to collect the winners' memento before the captain Shreyas Iyer receives the winners' cheque of INR 20 crore from Mr. Roger Binny, the honorable President of the BCCI and Mr. Jay Shah, the honorable Secretary of the BCCI. What a moment of satisfaction for Shreyas and the Knights - two months of incredible hard work and dominance right from the first game. They were by and large the best team of the season and with Gautam Gambhir returning to the mix as mentor, special things were expected. And this team certainly produced a number of special moments this year to be crowned champions for the third time in the history of the league.

Pat Cummins (Sunrisers Hyderabad captain): Yeah we didn't have enough on the board. They bowled really well, especially Starcy. You hope you get a few boundaries away but they bowled fantastically well, didn't give us anything. Similar to Ahmedabad as well a few days ago. It was a tricky wicket - if we got 160 we would have been in the game. Wasn't a 200 wicket. We were well short but a few extra runs would have given us a chance. So many (positives) - the style that the guys played particularly with the bat, takes a lot of skill to not only get 250 three times but you're putting yourself out there a fair bit. In high-pressure situations they took the game on. The fans seemed to like it in Hyderabad so a great season. (On captaining this year) It was fantastic. I hadn't worked with many of the guys before at all. It was great to work with some of the experienced guys with Bhuvi who I've played a lot against. And the younger batters and bowlers as well. A great couple of months. We play a lot over here in India and we see a sea of blue. It's nice to have the crowd on our side for once. It keeps getting bigger and better with each year.

Now, it's time for the runners-up, the Sunrisers Hyderabad to receive a limited edition watch as a reward for the season. Daniel Vettori, the head coach of the team, comes up to collect it. Pat Cummins then comes up to the stage to receive the runner-up cheque of INR 12.5 crore and a shield. A season where they played an exhilarating brand of cricket and set high standards for themselves and the rest of the competition. It wasn't their night tonight but this is a season post which they can certainly hold their head high having turned things around dramatically after a dismal 2023 season.

The match officials now come up to the stage to receive their mementos.

The Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad wins the award for the best pitch and ground of the season.

And now, the undisputed player of the season. Sunil Narine of the Knight Riders is declared the Most Valuable Player of the Tournament. Runs, wickets, dot balls - this season had it all!

Here's what he has to say: Yeah I felt like 2012 when I came to the group. The feeling is overwhelming and I couldn't have asked for a better birthday gift. I am enjoying my cricket at the moment. Batting bowling and fielding. The fight we put up throughout the tournament shows us how good are we as a team. I think getting the opportunity to express myself is key. GG just said to go and express myself which was a very good advice. I think Salt had an incredible season. We missed him but Gurbaz came in and filled that role. Varun is a world class bowler, whatever happens on the field he works off the field. His work ethic is phenomenal. As a total bowling unit, it's important to pick wickets.

Virat Kohli (Orange Cap winner): I am extremely honoured to receive the Orange Cap for this season of IPL. It was a rollercoaster ride and I am pleased with how I performed for my team, especially in the latter half where we needed to win every match to qualify. Thank you everyone for your support. I hope I can replicate this in the 2025 IPL.

Raucous cheers even before the name is announced as Virat Kohli takes home the Orange Cap for the most runs scored this season (741). Shreyas Iyer comes up to receive it on Kohli's behalf.

Harshal Patel of the Punjab Kings wins the Purple Cap for bagging the most wickets (24). Bhuvneshwar Kumar receives it on his behalf. Harshal goes on to thank his family, teammates and coaches for being a part of his journey and supporting him.

Sunrisers Hyderabad win the Fairplay Award of the Season. Pat Cummins comes up to receive the award. They've played this season in the best spirit and were always bound to win it having topped the table pretty much throughout the season.

Ramandeep Singh now collects the award Best Catch of the Season. Remember that one where he traced after a skier against the Lucknow Super Giants before throwing himself forward to pluck it? Undisputed best catch of the season that!

Travis Head now walks up to the dais to take away the On-The-Go Fours Award of the Season.

Abhishek Sharma wins the Super Sixes of the season award for smashing 42 of them over the fence.

Sunil Narine takes away the award for the Ultimate Fantasy Player of the Season.

Jake Fraser-McGurk bags the award for the Electric Striker of the season. He isn't here though and so, Travis Head collects the award on his behalf.

Nitish Kumar Reddy is declared the Emerging Player of the Season. An outstanding campaign where he tallied in excess of 300 runs, chipped in with the ball and was brilliant on the field. He's surely one to watch out for in the future alright!
