Indian Premier League (IPL) season 2024 will witness Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), the champions of IPL 2016, go head-to-head against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), who have clinched the title twice, on March 23 (Saturday). The historic Eden Gardens stadium will host this eagerly awaited encounter, featuring two of the most expensive players in IPL history, Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins, going head-to-head.
In their previous encounter, the teams were captained by different leaders. However, this time around, KKR will see the return of their skipper Shreyas Iyer, who missed IPL 2023 due to injury. Meanwhile, Pat Cummins will be leading an IPL team for the first time, as he takes charge of SRH.
