Hyderabad’s batting lineup faltered in the crucial match, with only Pat Cummins and Aiden Markram managing to surpass the 20-run mark, scoring 26 and 20 runs respectively. The rest of the team failed to make significant contributions, leading to a disappointing performance.

In Kolkata’s bowling effort, each of the six bowlers contributed with at least one wicket. Andre Russell led with three dismissals, while Harshit Rana and Mitchell Starc claimed two each. Sunil Narine had an impressive bowling performance, conceding only 16 runs from his full quota of four overs and grabbing a wicket.

However, his batting innings was short-lived, getting out after hitting a brilliant six off Pat Cummins’ delivery. This marked KKR’s third IPL title, following victories in 2012 and 2013. It’s noteworthy that Narine played a crucial role in Kolkata’s lineup in all three championship wins.
