IPL 2024 Finals Prediction: Which two teams will play the IPL 2024 finals?

IPL 2024 finals Prediction: The IPL 2024 league stage has been done and dusted and the top 4 teams are now set to go hard for the playoffs. We have seen so many ups and downs in the points table with RCB securing their place on the 2^nd last day. Also, SRH dethrowns RR from the 2^nd spot and makes sure they will finish in the top 2. Today, we will talk about the two possible contenders to play in the IPL 2024 finals. We will also review the campaigns of the top 4 teams and based on that review, we will predict the two possible teams for the IPL 2024 finals.

KKR dominated the IPL 2024 points table

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) has been the most consistent team in the whole tournament. They haven’t been under the pump for a long time. Whenever they were in a difficult situation in a game, they found a new hero every time.

If we have to pick a team with the best combination, KKR will be that team. Apart from a few players, every player has contributed to the team’s success till now. Even their local Indian talents like Vaibhav Arora and Harshit Rana have been phenomenal in the bowling department. Ramandeep Singh has also played a few crucial cameos lower down the order.

As far as batting, we have seen a resurgence of Sunil Narine – the opener. And this time an even better version. Phil Salt also compliments Narine at the top of the order. KKR will miss the services of Salt in the playoffs as he is going on a national duty.

Andre Russell has been at his actual best and V Iyer and Manish Pandey have also responded whenever the team needed them. KKR has a very good spin attack with Narine and Varun Chakravarthy in the team.

KKR’s only concern is Shreyas Iyer and Rinku Singh’s lack of runs. But we all know what they can do on a given day. KKR will surely be one of the top contenders for the IPL 2024 finals.

A new brand of cricket from SRH

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) has changed the dynamics of T20 cricket this year. Their way of playing has that intimidation factor which the opposition is aware of. Their batting prowess is nothing short of appreciation with Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, and Heinrich Klaasen playing their best cricket. Players like Nitish Reddy and Shahbaz Ahmed have also complemented the batting lineup and they have a very good captain in Pat Cummins.

SRH’s slight concern is not having regular wicket-taking spinners. But they have the experience of B Kumar and Pat Cummins. SRH has finished on No. 2 in the points table and will get two chances to reach the IPL 2024 finals.

Has RR peaked too early?

About 20 days ago, Rajasthan Royals (RR) was the best team in the tournament. They have 8 wins in 9 games and sitting at the top of the points table. But since then, they haven’t tasted a win in the last 5 games. Now the question is has RR peaked too early in the tournament?

Their combination is not clicking at the moment and with the absence of Jos Buttler, it will become even worse. Yashasvi, apart from that hundred, hasn’t been in the best of his form. They relied too much relied on Sanju Samson and Riyan Parag in the middle order.

Their bowling has been good and they have to find a way to get out of this. You never know what lies ahead. It’s a matter of just one day. If RR brings out their best cricket in Eliminator, they become effective again.

A remarkable comeback by RCB

Who would have thought that RCB would be in the playoffs when they won only one game out of the first 8. But that’s the beauty of this tournament. Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) has been outstanding in the last 6 games and their combination has started to click now.

With Virat, Patidar, and Faf scoring runs, and Green, Maxwell, and DK finishing well against CSK, we can say it’s a team effort. Not just in that game, different individuals have stepped up on different occasions.

Now, RCB is looking more dangerous as they are peaking at the right time. A team who came from behind is more dangerous than ever. We have seen MI doing this and winning a trophy as well over the years.

Which two teams will play in the IPL 2024 finals? (PREDICTIONS)

Right now, looking at the current form and the situation, KKR and SRH are looking good to have a go in the IPL 2024 finals. It’s purely because of the way they are playing. Also, we have seen over the years that the top 2 teams in the points table have better chances to play the finals as they get two chances in the Qualifiers. RCB might be the closest team to come. But as of now, we have picked these KKR and SRH as the two contenders.

NOTE:-

This is just a prediction based on analysis, current form, situation, and instinct. Everyone has its way of looking at how things are going.
