The GT vs KKR match in IPL 2024 has been called due to persistent rain in Ahmedabad on Monday, May 13. The rain kept battering the city of Ahmedabad, leading to a delay. The intensity of the downpour lessened for a bit before the rain came down heavily and it did not stop with the game eventually being called off. It was reported that 10:56 pm IST (Indian Standard Time) was the official cut-off time for a five-over game, but it was not possible as several parts of the ground were covered with water due to the relentless rainfall. As a result of this washout, Gujarat Titans have been knocked out of the race to make it to the IPL 2024 playoffs, as the maximum they can get from here on is 13 points if they win their next match, which just would not be enough. KKR, on the other hand, now have 19 points, which is enough for them to seal a top-two spot. IPL 2024 Points Table Updated With Net Run Rate.
