IPL 2024: Mitchell Starc’s rich spell floors SRH, land KKR direct final berth

At the end of the powerplay overs, the formidable Sunrisers Hyderabad batting line-up lay in tatters, reduced to 45/4 against Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL’s Qualifier 1 on Tuesday. The bowler to upset the plans of Pat Cummins was his Australia new ball partner Mitchell Starc. Set a target of 160, Venkatesh Iyer and Shreyas Iyer hit unbeaten half-centuries to complete the chase in 13.4 overs and power twice champions KKR into their first final since 2021.
