KKR to lose IPL 2024 Final? Fans speculate SRH's win on Rapper Drake's betting curse

Kolkata Knight Riders are set to take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Final of the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai, on May 26 (Sunday). Ahead of the big clash, fans have already started to speculate SRH's win as renowned rapper Drake has bet his money on KKR.

KKR hit with Drake curse?

Drake curse is a famous term on social media among sports fans. The rapper is known for placing bets on sports matches, be it football, UFC fights, or Boxing matches. However, in most cases the people and teams Drake bets on end up on the losing end. This gave birth to the ‘Drake curse’ on social media.

Now the Canadian rapper has made his first bet in cricket for the big IPL Final. He was likely planning to place his money on RR but following their elimination from the playoffs, he has decided to bet $250,000 on the Knight Riders. However, fans have started hitting back on it and are saying this has confirmed SRH's win.
