Faf du Plessis has won the toss and elected to bowl first against Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Indian Premier League 2024. “The pitch is two-paced. We haven’t played well this season and the players are struggling. We are giving chances to other players. Glenn Maxwell and Mohammed Siraj are not playing,” Faf du Plessis said.

Pat Cummins would have bowled first as well. “The pitch is always good for batting over here. Even the total of 240 is a par score. We are playing well in this season. We have lost two games but it was a learning experience for us. We are going with the same team,” Pat Cummins said.
