Kolkata’s practice session washed away by rain
There is no good news for the fans before the IPL 2024 final. A day before the match, the Kolkata Knight Riders team had to cancel practice due to rain. This information was given by the team management. Actually, the team had to practice on Saturday evening but it had to be canceled due to rain.
What if it rains during the final?
Last time rain disrupted the IPL final. The match was played on the reserve day and this time also in such a situation the match can be played the next day. If it rains during the match then it will be played in at least 5-5 overs. If this is not possible then the decision will be made by a super over. If this is also not possible then Kolkata, which is at the top of the points table, will be declared the winner.
