IPL 2024: What Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc never imagined is going to happen
With just one day to go before the final of IPL 2024, till last year those who were winning the World Cup side by side on Indian soil. Now they will be seen playing against each other for the IPL title on the same Indian ground. The current form of Cummins and Starc is making this encounter exciting.
Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders are coming face to face once again in IPL 2024. This time the competition will be a bit bigger, as whoever wins will get the IPL title. However, this match will see something happen, which two of the most expensive players in IPL history, namely Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins, would never have imagined. Now the question is what is going to happen.
Head-to-head in the final of IPL 2024
Pat Cummins made the statement when Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders clashed for the first time in IPL 2024. He said he never thought he would even have to play against Starc. And now the competition between them has taken a title form.
The battle between Cummins and Stark
Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc together have won every major ICC title for Australia. Both won the ODI World Cup in India last year itself. But, now for the first time on the same Indian ground, both will face each other for the glittering trophy of IPL. The battle between these two Australian giants in the title clash between SRH and KKR is also going to be interesting.
Starc-Cummins in fine form
The match between Cummins and Starc will be interesting as both are in great form. Pat Cummins dominated throughout the tournament. On the other hand, as soon as KKR reached the playoffs, Starc's game also became top class. KKR booked their ticket to the IPL 2024 final by defeating SRH in Qualifier 1, with 3-wicket hauler Mitchell Starc playing an important role.
Will SRH benefit?
Now Pat Cummins and his Sunrisers have a chance to settle scores with Kolkata Knight Riders. SRH has the advantage that the final of IPL 2024 is to be played in Chennai, where they played and won the Qualifier 2 matches. While KKR played Qualifier 1 in Ahmedabad. In such a situation, the SRH players will have a new experience of the Chennai pitch.
