Kolkata Knight Riders has sealed its place in its third-ever final of the IPL, defeating Delhi Capitals in Qualifier 2 of the IPL 2021 Playoffs. Consequently, social media was ecstatic following the same.
It was a spectacular competition between former champion Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Delhi Capitals (DC) in Qualifier 2 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Wednesday. KKR held its nerves to edge past DC by three wickets, with a ball to spare, to qualify for its third-ever IPL final, while DC's wait for its maiden title continues.
KKR would now take on fellow former champion Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the Dubai International Stadium on Friday. KKR won its previous two IPL finals, including a win against CSK in the 2012 final at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
