POTM Abhishek Sharma said:
"I said in the previous interview too, the domestic season gives us a lot of confidence. The message for the batters is simple - go out and express yourself. The plan was to attack, I enjoyed batting with Head, he's one of my favourite batters, I admire him. He told me to go for it if it was in my zone. I'm happy to be getting my chances, doesn't matter what position I'm playing. I had a chance to talk to Brian Lara last night, that helped me massively. I would rather bowl more in practice than bat, trying my best with bowling as well," Sharma said.
Winning skipper Pat Cummins said:
"That was insane. The ball was really pinging around. Not until we bowled, it got a bit too close for comfort. They found a boundary whenever they needed it, but we finished it off well. Really impressive, in IPL you play with a lot of pressure but he plays with great freedom. You never play for 270, but we wanted to be postive and be aggressive, take the game on. It was a good wicket, so we have to suck it up knowing we would go for a few boundaries. What's important is to have clear plans with the ball. Amazing atmosphere in the ground, enjoyed playing here, was incredibly loud," Cummins said.
Losing skipper Hardik Pandya said:
"Not really (thought SRH would score 277 at the toss). Wicket was good, 277 no matter how bad or good you bowl, if the opposition has to score that much, they have batted well. They (the bowlers) were good, it was tough out there, almost 500 runs were scored and the wicket was helping the batters, we could have done a few things here and there, but having said that, we have a young bowling attack and we will learn. If the ball goes this many times into the crowd, you will need time to get the overs done. Everyone (the batters) looked good and it is just a matter of time before we put things right. He (Kwena Maphaka) was fantastic, coming into his first game and getting overwhelmed, he was alright and backed his skillset, just needs some game time," Hardik said.

The Pat Cummins-led side struggled with the ball in the first match but there were multiple positives.
Heinrich Klaasen’s blistering batting, Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s accuracy with the new ball and T Natarajan’s form should motivate the team ahead of the clash against Mumbai. The Hardik Pandya-led side meanwhile would be disappointed after their loss to Gujrat Titans in their opening match, as their tactics didn’t go according to the plan.
Pandya bowling with the new ball backfired and him coming out to bat at number seven too was criticised by former cricketers, including Irfan Pathan, who stated that the all-rounder wasn’t ready to face Rashid Khan. Meanwhile, former captain Rohit Sharma has shown glimpses of his class as the opener made 43 runs off 29 deliveries against GT. Youngster Dewald Brevis smashed 46 runs off 38 deliveries, while the middle order batters failed to deliver.
When it comes to bowling, Jasprit Bumrah had a brilliant time in the middle. The ace pacer picked up three wickets, conceding just 14 runs in four overs while Gerald Coetzee supported him well, picking up two wickets at an economy rate of 6.80.
Probable Playing XI:
Sunrisers Hyderabad - Mayank Agarwal, Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Abdul Samad, Shahbaz Ahmed, Marco Jansen, Pat Cummins (c), Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mayank Markande, T Natarajan
Mumbai Indians - Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan (wk), Naman Dhir, Dewald Brevis, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya (c), Tim David, Shams Mulani, Piyush Chawla, Gerald Coetzee, Jasprit Bumrah
