  KKR vs SRH, IPL 2024 Final Live Score: Sunrisers Hyderabad opt to bat

  Pat Cummins - We will bat first. Looks like a good wicket, played on a different wicket the other night. Our attacking game doesn't work every time, but when it does, it's very damaging. We've had no dew the other night, I don't feel there'll be any today, I want to crack with the bat first. We have done well defending scores. Pretty much the same, Shahbaz comes in for Samad.

  Shreyas Iyer - We would have bowled, we'll get a fair idea about how the pitch will play. It's a red soil and we played our last game on a similar surface. We need to stay with the present, stick to the basics and execute all our plans. Every individual is taking responsibility, this is a big game, we've plenty of people who're playing in a final for the first time, nervous, but this is also a good chance. We're going with the same team
