DT: "Any updates about Surya Kumar Yadav?" --- He is still at the NCA, recovering from ankle surgery. And Wanindu Hasaranga continues to be unavailable for SRH.

Two teams that lost their respective opening encounters will lock horns in the 8th clash of IPL 2024 tonight in Hyderabad. Hello and welcome everybody! All the matches have been won by the home teams this season, however, the Sunrisers Hyderabad dont boast a great record at this venue. Despite being the hosts, the Sunrisers have struggled to make an impact at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. They would be looking forward to turning things around this season though and give their fans something to cheer about.

Pitch and ground dimensions: First game of the season in Hyderabad. Right ride (leg-side) is 66 metres, left side is 63 metres, 76 metres straight down the ground. Looks like a great batting track, this one's void of grass. The best time to bat is against the new ball. As the ball loses shine, the bowlers who use variations and bowl slower ones will get purchase from the wicket. Teams need to capitalize in the first 5-10 overs while batting. There's going to be something in it for the fast bowlers in the beginning, something in it for the spinners throughout. Bowlers who hit the deck will enjoy bowling here. A bat first wicket, reckons Brian Lara.

“Akash Madhwal is marking his run-up," informs our correspondent Gokul Gopal from the venue.

Brian Lara says during the pitch report that he would prefer batting first on this surface, which has no grass at all. He says the best time to bat will be the first five to ten overs as the ball will start gripping later on and cutters is the way to go for seamers. The square boundaries are 63 metres and 66 metres. Down the ground it is 76 metres.
