Do you know that there were not one or two but 5 similarities between IPL 2024 Final and WPL 2024 Final. Even if it is a coincidence, it seemed as if a script was written and it was filmed on the same. Know about this, because Indian captains won the title, while the captains of the Australian team were disappointed. Kolkata Knight Riders defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad badly in the final of IPL 2024. KKR has won the final for the third time. Only Mumbai Indians (5) and Chennai Super Kings (5) have won more titles than KKR.
Actually, the first coincidence and similarity in this year's WPL and IPL finals was that on one side there was an Australian captain and on the other side there was an Indian player captain. The same was the case in WPL. In WPL, Australia's Meg Lanning was the captain on one side and Smriti Mandhana was the captain on the other side. In IPL, Pat Cummins was the captain on one side and Shreyas Iyer was the captain on the other side. In WPL, the Indian captain won the title and the same was seen in IPL. Even both the teams won by a margin of 8-8 wickets.

The third similarity was that in WPL also the Australian captain won the toss and chose to bowl and in IPL also the Australian captain won the toss and chose to bowl. The fourth coincidence was that the team batting first in the WPL 2024 Final was all out for 113 runs and similarly in the IPL 2024 Final the team batting first was all out. Both the teams played only 18.3 overs. The fifth similarity was that the Australian captain who lost in the WPL and IPL finals had won two ICC finals against India. Pat Cummins defeated India in the finals of the ICC World Test Championship and the World Cup.
