KKR displayed a clinical performance, dismissing SRH for a mere 113 runs, the lowest total ever in an IPL final. The Knight Riders then chased down the target of 114 in just 12.3 overs, with 57 balls to spare.

Venkatesh Iyer was outstanding, scoring 52 not out off 26 balls. Mitchell Starc (2/14), Andre Russell (3/19), and Harshit Rana (2/24) were the standout bowlers for KKR.

 
SRH had a disastrous start, losing top batsmen Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head early. Abhishek Sharma was bowled out on the first ball by Mitchell Starc, and Travis Head fell soon after, leaving SRH at 21/3.

 
KKR's bowlers, led by Starc and Russell, dismantled SRH's batting lineup early, reducing them to 62/5 by the 11th over.

The constant pressure from KKR's bowlers made it difficult for SRH to recover, and they eventually were all out for 113.

 
KKR co-owner Shah Rukh Khan celebrated the victory with visible emotion. In a touching moment, he hugged and kissed his wife, Gauri Khan, showing his joy and pride in the team's achievement.
