Is there a reserve day for KKR vs SRH Qualifier 1 clash?
There is no reserve day available for the big KKR vs SRH clash in IPL 2024 Qualifier 1. In fact, unlike the regular seasons, there are no reserve days available for the IPL playoffs. This is because the Eliminator between Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) is scheduled for the following day. i.e on May 22.
What happens if KKR vs SRH gets washed out?
Sunrisers Hyderabad would be hoping that there's no sight of rain. On the other hand, KKR who got their last two games canceled due to rain can actually seal the spot straight to the finals if this match gets abandoned as well. Since KKR topped the league, they'd secure a final berth, while SRH would head to Chennai to play the Qualifier 2.
