Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) humiliated Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) on the night of the final and won their third IPL title in the league’s history. The three-time champions have been the most dominant team and finished as the league leaders then went on to win Qualifier 1 against Hyderabad and defeated them in the final on May 26, at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai.
