"Hyderabad will not go down without a fight" - Aakash Chopra ahead of SRH vs KKR IPL 2024 final
Former Indian opener Aakash Chopra previewed tonight's IPL 2024 final match in a video shared on his YouTube channel. He opined that it would be an enjoyable and competitive match.
"It's going to be a good game. I feel this encounter will be extremely enjoyable. Hyderabad will not go down without a fight. Don't be surprised if they lift the trophy. That is also possible. It is the third final for both teams (fourth for KKR). KKR lifted the trophy at this ground itself in 2012 after beating Chennai," he said.
He also picked Klaasen as one of the players to watch out for from the SRH side in this game.
"In Qualifier 1 and also the third game of the season, runs came from Heinrich Klaasen's bat against this team. He is not bothered that much against spin and he plays differently. He played very well in the last match as well. It was a slow fifty as per his standards but it was a massive fifty if you win the match by such a huge margin," Chopra added.
