IPL 2024: KKR vs SRH, Final: Who said what at the toss?

Pat Cummins – We will bat first. Looks like a good wicket, played on a different wicket the other night. There was no dew on the other night’s game, but when it does, it’s verydamaging. We’ve had now dew the other night, I don’t feel there’ll be any today, I want to crack withthe batfirst. We have a style that doesn’t work always, but when it does work, it’s very damagiing. 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
