Speaking at the toss, David Warner stated that they want to bat first considering the batting-friendly surface. He said:
"We are gonna bat first. Looks a nice surface, has got a nice even sheen to it. If you put a good total on the board, you can defend it. It's about being consistent. We got to start well in the first 6 with bat and ball. My mindset is to thank the crowd, they've been a great support.
"For me, it's about entertaining them. Absolutely love this venue, I owe it to the fans. Sarfaraz Khan comes in and Ripal Patel is in. I owe it to the curator, you have to start well."
SRH skipper Aiden Markram was happy with the toss as he suggested that Hyderabad would have anyway preferred to bowl first, adding:
"We would have bowled first, not too unhappy. The surface shouldn't get worse. It's an important game for us, we need to start getting points on the board. We are looking forward to the challenge.
"Should be a good game of cricket. There's one change within the sixteen.Nitish Reddy gets into the 16 - bowling all-rounder for us. In terms of our batting, it has been up and down but we've made a conscious decision to pick a top six/seven that we are going to hopefully back for the remaining games. Looks good, pretty similar to the Mumbai game. Plenty runs there, hopefully we can deliver a good performance."
