During the on-field broadcast after the clash in Ahmedabad, Shah Rukh Khan, the Kolkata Knight Riders co-owner accidently bumped into commentators Suresh Raina, Akaash Chopra and Parthiv Patel on Tuesday.
As KKR thumped Sunrisers Hyderabad by eight wickets in a one-sided affair to enter the IPL 2024 final, Shah Rukh was happy and he was taking a lap of honour around to greet his fans.
Therefore while they were giving their view about it he passed through them without noticing that it was Raina, Chopra and Parthiv who happened to be walking across them too at that moment live on air.
After this mistake however there was a nice gesture from Shah Rukh as he went up and hugged Chopra.
He continued with his round as her children Suhana Khan and Abram Khan accompanied him crossing the field.
When they won. Two-time Champions KKR will face their fourth IPL final match.
KKR first bowled out Sunrisers for 159 as Pacer Mitchell Starc struck thrice in the powerplay.
While Rahul Tripathi emerged top scorer for SRH with fifty five runs off thirty five balls, Heinrich Klaasen registered thirty two runs off twenty one balls.
In an otherwise underwhelming batting effort, the only thing that worked well for them was a stand of sixty two runs between Tripathi and Klaasen runs.
With unbeaten knocks from Venkatesh Iyer (51*) and skipper Shreyas Iyer (58*), KKR then gunned down the target in 13.4 overs .
They will then play against Friday’s winner of Eliminator to get one more chance to go into this season’s Finals at Chennai.
