IPL 2024: What will happen if Qualifier 1 between KKR and SRH gets washed out?

The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 Qualifier 1 between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) is scheduled to take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad on Tuesday. Given that both the teams are placed in the top two positions in the points table, the winner of this game advances straight to the final match, while the losing team gets a second opportunity to change their fate in the second elimination round.

For the play-off matches, in addition to the extra time referred to above including the May 26 final game, all feature Reserve Days, in contrast to past IPL seasons. After that, if the match still gets washed out due to rain, then the team placed higher in the points table will proceed further to the finals and the 2nd team will play the Qualifier 2. 

With 20 points at the end of the league stage, KKR led the Orange Army, who had 17 points. To advance to the final, the loser of qualifier 1 will square off against the winner of the first eliminator between the Rajasthan Royals (RR) and the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB).
