In a nail-biting finale, with Ravindra Jadeja at the crease and CSK needing 10 runs from 2 balls with Yash Dayal bowling, reminiscent of the 2023 finals, Jadeja’s heroics fell short, leading to disappointment for the Yellow Army. Following the triumph, Virat Kohli was visibly moved, shedding tears after overcoming the defending champions.

From the 10th position to playoff qualification in just 15 days, Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s remarkable turnaround saw them win 7 out of 14 matches in the IPL 2024 tournament. The team’s exceptional performance in the last 5 matches showcased their class.
