Overview
- SunRisers Hyderabad, with only two wins in seven matches, urgently need a victory to remain in contention for IPL 2025 playoffs.
- SRH’s campaign struggles stem from inconsistent batting and a bowling attack that has repeatedly conceded high run totals.
- Mumbai Indians have rebounded from a slow start with three consecutive wins, including a dominant performance against Chennai Super Kings.
- MI’s resurgence has been powered by the return to form of Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav, alongside a balanced bowling lineup led by Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult.
- The match at Hyderabad’s Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium will test SRH’s ability to leverage their home advantage on what is expected to be a high-scoring pitch.
