GT vs KKR: Match Preview:

GT are all but out of the playoffs race but their captain Shubman Gill made it clear that the team is still hopeful of a miracle following the impressive 35-run win over Chennai Super Kings in the last game. After leading GT to a much-needed win in the do-or-die clash, Gill had said: “I have seen miracles happen with this team in the past couple of years and we all do believe in that.”

The equation is very clear for them right now. Win the remaining two games and then hope for the best. To stay in the playoffs race, GT will have to first beat table-toppers Kolkata Knight Riders who are the only side to make it to the playoffs so far.

The last time GT and KKR faced each other in Ahmedabad, the match had witnessed a remarkable and historic event as Rinku Singh had hit Yash Dayal for five sixes in a row to clinch a miraculous win for the visitors. GT will be hoping to avoid a similar result this time to remain alive in IPL 2024.

KKR, on the other hand, have not only made it to the playoffs but are also all but assured of a place in the top two. However, they won’t be taking the game lightly and would be eyeing another win to keep the winning momentum.

IPL 2024 points table:

With nine wins and three losses, KKR are sitting at the top of the IPL 2024 points table. On the other hand, GT are languishing at the eighth spot with five wins and seven losses.
