Under the captaincy of Pat Cummins, Sunrisers Hyderabad also performed brilliantly but missed out on winning the title. Sunrisers Hyderabad, which finished second in the league stage, had to face defeat against Kolkata Knight Riders in the final of IPL 2024. Sunrisers, who won the hearts of the fans with their explosive game throughout the season, were a complete flop in the final. After the defeat in the final match, the captain of the team Pat Cummins gave a big statement.
Big statement by Pat Cummins after the defeat
Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Pat Cummins said after the defeat in the final that Kolkata Knight Riders bowled brilliantly. We did not play well tonight, were completely outplayed. Unfortunately, old partner Mitchell Starc started bowling well again. You expect to get some boundaries but he bowled brilliantly, we got nothing. The same thing happened in Ahmedabad last week, where he bowled really well, so all the credit goes to him.
Pat Cummins further said that it was a difficult wicket. If we had scored 160 runs, we would have felt that we would have been in the game. It did not feel like a 200 plus wicket. He further said that there were a lot of positives to see, the style with which the players played, especially the batsmen, it takes a lot of skill to reach 250 three times. I liked how brave those guys were. It was a lot of fun, a great season. Really great team, the support staff was amazing, a few months were great.
SRH’s batting flopped in the final match

Kolkata Knight Riders achieved this target in 10.3 overs at the loss of 2 wickets.
