Speaking of the final showdown, the affair between Knight Riders and Sunrisers was a one-sided one. KKR never let the opposition settle, as SRH had their lowest total of the season, contrary to what was actually required. Andre Russell (3/19), Mitchell Starc (2/14), and Harshit Rana (2/24) bowled brilliantly to pick crucial wickets, while the spin partners Varun Chakravarthy and Sunil Narine also kept their economies in check, eventually bundling the opposition out for a mere 113 in 18.3 overs.

With a not-so-daunting target ahead of them, the openers didn't hesitate to open their arms freely from the very first over, however, Sunil Narine departed on the second ball after opening his account with a maximum. However, Venkatesh Iyer (52 off 26) stitched a solid 91-run partnership, ensuring no hiccups during the chase. The southpaw also hit the winning runs, and helped the side lift their third trophy and the first in ten years.
