"What a script by God"- Top 10 funny memes as KKR vs RR IPL 2024 clash gets washed out in Guwahati
Rain played a spoilsport on Sunday (May 19) as the last league match of IPL 2024 between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) got washed out. Due to persistent showers at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati, both teams have been awarded one point each.
It was a frustrating night for both teams as rain kept making its presence felt at regular intervals. The match officials conducted a toss at 10:30pm (IST) for a seven-over contest. However, the rain returned after just 10 minutes, ending the chances of any cricketing action for the night.
Knight Riders ended the league stage with 20 points at the pole position. RR and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) are tied with 17 points, but due to a better net run rate, the Hyderabad franchise occupy the second spot.
KKR will square off against SRH in the first playoff match of IPL 2024 on Tuesday (May 21) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. RR will lock horns with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) on Wednesday in the first Eliminator at the same venue.
Fans were disappointed after the last league match of IPL 2024 was abandoned on Sunday night. They expressed their reactions by sharing hilarious memes on social media platforms.
Here are some of the best memes:
"Very difficult to find faults in this team"- Aakash Chopra on KKR's performance in IPL 2024
Former Indian opener Aakash Chopra recently reviewed KKR's performance in the league stage of IPL 2024. He opined that everything has been working perfectly for the Knight Riders, who are enjoying a dream season. In a video on his YouTube channel, Chopra said:
"Very difficult to find faults in this team. All things are working almost perfectly. A dream season is unfolding in front of us. If I tell the truth, KKR are the best team at the moment, they are already at No. 1. Kolkata will play Rahmanullah Gurbaz for sure, it's obvious, and that's the only thing they need to correct. Since Phil Salt has left, will they miss him a lot? "
He continued:
"Maybe yes, maybe not, but Rahmanullah is a brilliant player. So from Kolkata's viewpoint, he should score runs. Shreyas Iyer hasn't scored those many runs thus far. It has been a slightly cold season for him, so he would want to score runs."
