Sunrisers Hyderabad climbed up a place to second on the IPL 2024 points table after a comfortable win over the Punjab Kings in Hyderabad on Sunday.
As things stand, the team will face Kolkata Knight Riders in Qualifier 1 in Ahmedabad on Tuesday, but a Rajasthan Royals win in the evening fixture would bring it back to second spot.
The loss ensures Punjab Kings will finish the season in ninth place, two points ahead of the last-placed Mumbai Indians.
