Match 63 of the IPL 2024 match between Gujarat Titans and Kolkata Knight Riders was called off due to excessive rain.
GT’s playoff dreams came crashing down in a heart-wrenching manner.
Gujarat Titans (GT), former finalists and champions of the Indian Premier League (IPL) in 2022, saw their playoff dreams come crashing down in a heart-wrenching manner. Facing the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Match 63, their hopes were dashed as unrelenting rain led to the abandonment of the game at the Narendra Modi Stadium. This unfortunate turn of events marked the GT’s first-ever exclusion from the playoffs since their IPL inception in 2022.
Despite GT’s earlier aspirations of clinching victories to secure a playoff spot, the abandoned fixture sealed their fate of elimination. With no points gained from the washed-out match against KKR, the Titans found themselves out of contention for the playoffs, a bitter pill to swallow for the franchise and its supporters.
