KKR vs SRH, IPL 2024 Final: Sunrisers Hyderabad have made a disastrous start to the IPL 2024 Final against Kolkata Knight Riders.

After Pat Cummins chose to Bat first, SRH have made the worst possible start against the KKR bowlers.

It has been a deja vu for the Orange Army from the Qualifier 1, where they lost Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head in the first two overs. In the Final, Abhishek was the first to go as Mitchell Starc uprooted his stumps with an outstanding delivery.

In the 2nd over, Vaibhav Arora sent Travis Head packing for a Golden Duck as the Aussie opener edged one straight to the KKR keeper Rahmanullah Gurbaz.

Both Head and Abhishek have been stellar for SRH in the IPL 2024 league phase, where they scored a plethora of runs. But it hasn't happened for either in the playoffs. Head departed for a duck against KKR in both playoff matches, while Abhishek just managed a couple in the Final.

Fans didn't take mercy of the SRH openers after their cheap departures. The netizens trolled the SRH pair on social media. Here are some of the reactions-

A user termed the SRH openers as 'Chokers' after the wickets so early in the match.

This fan has admired the aggression of Mitchell Starc, who has been brilliant for the Knight Riders in the playoffs.

SRH had been rebuilding through Rahul Tripathi and Aiden Markram. But at the time of writing, Rahul Tripathi has also departed as SRH are tottering at 21 for 3, with Mitchell Starc getting his 2nd wicket of the night.
