IPL 2024 Qualifier 1 KKR vs RCB: Time, Venue, Head To Head, Weather Report, Squad, Playing XI and Live Streaming Details. IPL 2024 has reached the playoffs, and we are just a week away from crowning a new winner. The top four teams are Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), Rajasthan Royals (RR), and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), in that order. SRH secured second place by defeating Punjab Kings on Sunday afternoon.
RR missed out on second place after their match against KKR was washed out, leaving them with 17 points. SRH also ended up with 17 points but took second place due to their better net run rate (NRR). KKR was the first team to qualify for the playoffs with 20 points and will play SRH in the first qualifier. RCB showed both bravery and luck by winning six matches in a row to qualify, and in doing so, they knocked out MS Dhoni’s CSK.
