SRH skipper Pat Cummins won the toss and opted to bowl first in the contest. Bhuvneshwar Kumar gave the home team a good start by dismissing Rachin Ravindra cheaply for 12 (9).
Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad got a start but fell for 26 (21) in the 8th over, leaving his side at 54/2. Shivam Dube walked in at this juncture and injected much-needed momentum into the innings after a sedate start.

Ravindra Jadeja (31* off 23 balls) and other middle-order batters then could not score runs freely in the death as CSK ended with a middling total of 165/5.

"We kept hitting the length, kept varying the pace"- SRH pacer Jaydev Unadkat after first innings against CSK in IPL 2024 match
At the mid-innings break, veteran SRH pacer Jaydev Unadkat shed light on the thought process of their bowling attack in the first innings, saying:
"To be honest, I don't see a lot of difference from when we played the last time. We kept hitting the length, kept varying the pace and that is probably the way to go on any surface, isn't it? We have been using the fast bowlers. Having a fast-bowling captain helps, that has been a strong point."
He continued:
"One of those days where we kept hitting the length hard and the ball kept going to the fielders. Lesser boundaries conceded and that was the difference. (On the run-chase) It is about getting the momentum in the beginning. If we get the powerplay right, we will be well on course to get the score tonight."
