Turning the high-voltage clash into a one-sided contest on Sunday, Shreyas Iyer’s Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) thrashed Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 final at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. Showcasing his bowling exploits in the summit clash of the cash-rich league, Mitchell Starc helped KKR bowl out SRH for just 113 as the 2016 winners posted the lowest-ever total in an IPL final.
Australian left-arm quick Starc bagged two wickets and leaked 14 runs against Hyderabad. Andre Russell and Harshit Rana shared five wickets to dismiss SRH for a paltry total in 18.3 overs at Chepauk. In reply, opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz played a quick-fire knock of 39 off 32 balls while Venkatesh Iyer remained unbeaten on 52 off 26 balls to seal KKR‘s eight-wicket win over SRH in the IPL 2024 final. With the comfortable win, Kolkata have lifted the famous trophy for the third time in the history of the IPL.
How much did KKR earn after 3rd title win?
Even though there is no official statement from the IPL, the winners of this season’s tournament will earn the same amount as last year. Thus, the total prize purse was INR 46.5 crore for participating teams in the IPL 2024. With the BCCI not revising the prize money list, KKR will earn INR 20 crore for winning the IPL 2024. Sunrisers Hyderabad will get INR 12.5 crore for finishing second in the IPL 2024. Former champions Rajasthan Royals will receive INR 7 crore, while Royal Challengers Bengaluru are taking home INR 6.5 crore to finish fourth this season.
