How to watch IPL final in UK: Full IPL 2021 schedule and Sky Sports TV details
IPL 2021 schedule details have been confirmed and RadioTimes.com has a guide on how to watch IPL in the UK on TV and Sky Sports platforms.
The 2021 IPL final is here at last. Following a lengthy pause in the middle of the tournament due to COVID-19 restrictions, the Chennai Super Kings will face off against the Kolkata Knight Riders in the showpiece match.
MS Dhoni's Chennai Super Kings lost their final three matches in the group stage as they relinquished the top spot to the Delhi Capitals, but defeated the Capitals in Qualifier 1 to reach the final.
England white-ball captain Eoin Morgan led his Knight Riders to three wins in four matches to secure fourth place. From there, they defeated Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Eliminator before also defeating the Capitals in Qualifier 2.
Chennai Super Kings won both of their matches against Kolkata Knight Riders during the regular season, but recent form would suggest they won't have it all their own way on Friday.
A total of 31 matches were played between April and the start of May 2021 before play was suspended indefinitely due to rising COVID cases across India and among the 'bio bubbles' of numerous teams.
