It was touch and go - we didn't qualify. It needed a lot of introspection and now we can savour this moment. He (Harshit Rana) has been outstanding. It's about backing your strengths. I think Mitch (Mitchell Starc) coming into the team boosted the confidence of other youngsters in the side. He is probably the best bowler in the world. Once he understood the Indian conditions, he was excellent. Spinners mature with age, and with Sunny (Sunil Narine) and Varun (Chakaravarthy) bowling in tandem, it was superb. He (Narine) brought a totally different dimension to our batting. It was Gautam (Gambhir) who insisted that he opened and it paid dividends. It's a great night and now it's time to celebrate," said KKR bowling coach Bharat Arun.

I asked mom before the match if she wanted anything. She said just the win. When Salt was playing, I wasn't expecting to get a chance but I knew it's a long tournament and I needed to be ready. Once I got the chance, I was well prepared," said Rahmanullah Gurbaz.
- 22:53 (IST)IPL 2024 Final: "Aim was to take wickets in the powerplay" - Vaibhav"My role is to take wickets with the new ball. After that the spinners were doing their jobs. So today also the aim was to take wickets in the powerplay, which happened as well," said Vaibhav Arora, who returned figures of 1 for 24 in three overs.
- 22:51 (IST)IPL 2024 Final Live: Nitish reveals a story involving Gambhir"I want to share one short story that when GG (Gautam Gambhir) bhaiya was named the mentor, I sent him a long message as I was really happy.

- 22:47 (IST)KKR vs SRH LIVE: "Cannot express how happy I am" - Nayar"It means everything. I started playing IPL in the first season and it has taken me 16 years for the first title after two finals.

- 22:44 (IST)IPL Final Live: Abhishek Nayar gets the well-deserved creditKKR's assistant coach and former player Abhishek Nayar gets a lot of acknowledgement from the players post the game.

Meanwhile, Venkatesh Iyer said: "Really happy with it. As Varun mentioned, Abhishek Nayar deserves all the credit in the world. Some contributions go unnoticed, I want to make sure they don't.

— JioCinema (@JioCinema) May 26, 2024 - 22:22 (IST)KKR vs SRH LIVE: OUT!8.5 - Shahbaz Ahmed has got the wicket of Rahmanullah Gurbaz. Umpire has raised his finger over the appeal but Gurbaz has decided to review it. As the ball tracking and UltraEdge is not available at the moment, the TV umpire stays with the on-ground umpire's decision. Gurbaz is clearly livid while walking off the ground.KKR 106/2 (9)
- 21:51 (IST)
- 21:43 (IST)Live Score: 4, 6, 6 - Venkatesh on fire!Venkatesh Iyer is firing on all cylinders and Bhuvneshwar Kumar is at the receiving end of it. Venkatesh started the over with a four before slamming back-to-back sixes to Bhuvi. 16 runs came off the first three balls of the over. Two singles came off the next two balls and then a couple.KKR 37/1 (3)
- 21:16 (IST)Live Score: SRH all out for 113Andre Russell gets the wicket of Pat Cummins and that will be the end of the SunRisers Hyderabad innings. They are all out for the score of 113. This is clearly a below-par total on any surface in IPL. Meanwhile, this also sees SRH register the lowest team total in the history of an IPL final.SRH 113 (18.3)
- 21:10 (IST)KKR vs SRH LIVE: WICKET!Here is the first wicket for Sunil Narine in the match. A much-derserved one for him. He bowed really well in the first three overs but gets a wicket in his final one. Jaydev Unadkat got the ball hit his front pad while trying to work the ball on the leg side. The ball then hit the off stump but bails did not come off. KKR reviewed and got the wicket as the ball was found to be hitting the leg stump when it crashed on the front pad of Unadkat.SRH 113/9 (17.5)
- 20:50 (IST)Live Score: OUT!Harshit Rana has dismissed Heinrich Klaasen and the last pure batter of SRH also departs. Rana is running in joy and the KKR fans have got no bounds. Even KKR co-owner Shah Rukh Khan is clapping in happiness. Meanwhile, SRH owner Kavya Maran was dejected in the stands.SRH 90/8 (14.1)
- 20:40 (IST)KKR vs SRH LIVE: WICKET!Second wicket for Andre Russell and SRH are now 7 down. KKR are truly dominating this game and SRH seem out of competition now. Their batters are falling like a pack of cards. It was a fuller delivery outside off stump from Russell and Abdul Samad paid the price of chasing it. He edged it to wicketkeeper Gurbaz.SRH 77/7 (12.4)
- 20:36 (IST)Live Score: OUT!Another one bites the dust! Shahbaz Ahmed has been dismissed by Varun Chakaravarthy. He played a sweep shot but got an edge on the ball and lost his wicket. Sunil Narine took the catch at short fine leg. SRH have now been forced to use Impact Player in the first innings. Abdul Samad comes in.SRH 71/6 (11.5)
- 20:30 (IST)KKR vs SRH LIVE: WICKET!Andre Russell comes and gets a wicket off the very first ball he has bowled in the game. Just when it looked that SRH need to accelerate, they lost another wicket. It was a short ball and Markram pulled it into the hands of Mitchell Starc.SRH 62/5 (10.2)
- 20:27 (IST)IPL 2024 Live Score: Narine's dominance intact!Sunil Narine has bowled yet another economical over. He has conceded only three runs in it. In the two overs bowled, Narine has given away only 7. SRH's scoring rate is 6.1. They not only have to save wickets, but also need to accelerate a bit.SRH 61/4 (10)
- 20:19 (IST)IPL 2024 Live Score: Spin introducedAfter some superb stuff from the KKR pacers in the first seven overs, spin has been introduced in the game. Sunil Narine comes up with his first over and concedes only four runs in it. SRH need to rebuild. Aiden Markram and Heinrich Klaasen need to stitch a solid partnership to bring SRH back in the game.SRH 51/4 (8)
- 20:14 (IST)Live Score: OUT!Another wicket for KKR and SRH are in serious trouble now. They have lost four wickets. It was a sensational delivery from Harshit Rana. He pitched it full and made it swing from there. The ball swung away from Nitish Reddy and took the outside edge of his bat. Rahmanullah Gurbaz took the catch.SRH 47/4 (7)
- 20:09 (IST)IPL 2024 Live Score: FOUR!Harshit Rana comes into the attack and Aiden Markram welcomes him with a crunching four on the off side. It was slightly short from Rana with a bit of width on offer and Markram slammed it for a boundary through the right of backward point fielder.SRH 44/3 (6.1)
- 20:06 (IST)IPL 2024 Live Score: A run-out chanceAiden Markram played the ball towards the mid-off fielder and wanted to take a quick single. KKR captain Shreyas Iyer was the man standing there. He collected the ball well and threw it in time but failed to hit the stumps at the non-striker's end.SRH 33/3 (5.3)
- 19:57 (IST)KKR vs SRH LIVE: WICKET!SRH are three down in 4.2 overs. This is terrific bowling from Mitchell Starc as he claims his second wicket. It was a good length ball and Tripathi wanted to whip it on the leg side but got a leading edge on it before Ramandeep Singh took the catch comfortably.SRH 21/3 (4.2)
