- 22:59 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: What V Iyer siadMore than the confidence I was really wanting to go out and bat, we last played a game on 11th, so we all were eager to go out and showcase our talent. The wicket was really good. In a tournament like this, momentum is really important, we have seen RCB winning their matches and gaining the momentum even we wanted that momentum, so we wanted to go out and wanted the rain to stop but it was disappointing. But, we were the table toppers and we have got a lot of support from the management. It is always special for players like us to play in the IPL final, it’s a dreamy moment for us, going to Chennai and looking forward to it. We were raring to go out there, when you have the momentum you want to really go out there. You saw Rinku fielding in hot spots and taking those catches, it’s the excitement we have to go out there and perform.
- 22:55 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: Cummins after the matchYeah we will try to put this behind quickly, good thing we will have a crack at it (second qualifier). You have those days in T20 cricket where things doesn't quite work out. We weren't where we wanted with the bat and obviously couldn't do much with the ball. Felt that extra batting was important (picking the impact sub) on this wicket. Thought KKR bowled really well, there was a little bit in it early on and the surface got better. We all have played enough cricket, and going to a new venue (Chennai) helps us as well, so we gotta keep this behind and move on. (edited)

KKR qualify for the IPL 2024 final while SRH will get another chance in Qualifier 2.
- 22:36 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: Ordinary stuff from SRHFor a team that looked almost unbeatable on multiple occasions, it has been an ordinary performance from SRH. The batters did not deliver and the bowling attack is looking a bit helpless against a KKR batting line-up which is marching on towards victory.KKR 124/2 after 11.3 overs
- 22:31 (IST)
- 22:01 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: Venkatesh Iyer joins the partyVenkatesh Iyer is also looking in good touch as he slammed Bhuvneshwar Kumar for a couple of boundaries. This is just good cricket from KKR and they are making this run chase look a bit too easy.KKR 57/1 after 5 overs
- 21:56 (IST)
- 21:56 (IST)
- 21:49 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: Gurbaz on firePhil Salt was one of the top performers for KKR this season but Rahmanullah Gurbaz has taken over the role perfectly. A massive six off Bhuvneshwar Kumar and KKR are looking extremely comfortable in this run chase.KKR 42/0 after 2.5 overs
- 21:41 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: What Starc saidI have been fortunate enough to play on some big occasions, nice to get our team off to a good start, we know how SRH matched us in terms of attacking with the bat in the powerplay. Their (Head and Abhishek) partnership has been the key for them and to get both of them out cheaply, it's really pleasing. The wicket's got a bit skiddier and there is some swing as well, I feel the wicket will get better with dew and the powerplay will be really key for us.

- 21:01 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: SRH lose wickets in a heapSecond wicket for Varun Chakaravarthy and what a show from the KKR bowlers! Bhuvneshwar Kumar is trapped LBW for a duck and this is just brilliant for KKR. SRH are in deep trouble and owner Kavya Maran's reaction says it all!SRH 126/9 after 16 overs
- 20:56 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: Another wicketAnother wicket goes down for SRH and this time, it is Harshit Rana.

- 20:52 (IST)
- 20:38 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: Klassen departsVarun Chakravarthy strikes and it is the massive wicket of Heinrich Klaasen. The South Africa batter once again went for another big shot but this time, it was not enough and Rinku Singh took a good catch near the boundary.SRH 112/5 after 12.2 overs
- 20:28 (IST)Shreyas Iyer's captaincy has come under the scanner as Klaasen and Tripathi fight back for SRH. Shreyas decided to not make Starc complete his overs and instead gave the ball to Russell and Narine. The move has not worked till now and the commentators were not convinced by the decisions.SRH 93/4 after 10.1 overs
- 20:10 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: Cometh the hour...Cometh the hour, cometh the man! Mitchell Starc needs no introduction when it comes to what he can do but this season has been a bit disappointing. But three wickets till now in this match proves once again why he is considered to be a world-class cricketer.SRH 50/4 after 7 overs
- 20:05 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: Starc showMitchell Starc you beauty! Two wickets in two balls and the Rs 24.75 crore pick showing everyone why KKR paid him the big bucks. A miscue from Nitish Reddy ended up in Rahmanullah Gurbaz's gloves while the next ball crashed straight into Shahbaz Ahmed's stumps.SRH 44/4 after 5.3 overs
- 19:53 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: DRS blunderA dangerous yorker from Mitchell Starc and it hit Rahul Tripathi's pad first before hitting his bat. However, KKR players including Starc were not convinced and they ended up not opting for the review. Replays show that Tripathi was out and this is a huge lifeline for SRH.SRH 29/2 after 3.4 overs
- 19:47 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: Russell takes stunnerWhat a catch! A stunning effort from Andre Russell and Abhishek Sharma departs. The in-form SRH opener played a loose shot off Vaibhav Arora but it did take a brilliant effort from Russell to hand KKR a clear advantage in the match.SRH 20/2 after 2.3 overs
- 19:40 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: Instant fightback?The Travis Head wicket was a setback but SRH are playing in their own trademark fashion. Couple of boundaries off Mitchell Starc by Rahul Tripathi and it looks like they are going to attack from the first over irrespective of the situation.SRH 13/1 after 1.3 overs
- 19:23 (IST)KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 Live Score: Big testBoth KKR and SRH have opted for no changes in their playing XIs but it is still the first time that Rahmanullah Gurbaz will play for KKR in IPL 2024. Phil Salt was preferred as the wicket-keeping choice till now and with him leaving and KKR not playing the last two matches due to rain, it is going to be a tough test for Gurbaz.
