Match Overview
On Sunday, April 6, 2025, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will face Gujarat Titans (GT) in Match 19 of IPL 2025 at the iconic Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad.
Hyderabad is coming off a disappointing loss in their last match against the Kolkata Knight Riders. Despite a promising start, they were unable to chase a target of 201 and were dismissed for just 120. Vaibhav Arora and Varun Chakravarthy’s clinical bowling put SRH on the back foot throughout the chase. Hyderabad’s hopes are dim as they sit at the bottom of the table, with just one win from their three games.
In contrast, Gujarat Titans have been playing an aggressive brand of cricket. Despite losing their opening match to Punjab Kings, they’ve bounced back with two wins out of three. Led by Shubman Gill, Gujarat will be eager to continue their winning form and extend their dominance.

-
Pat Cummins (SRH): The SRH captain has been one of their key bowlers. While his economy rate has been high, his experience and ability to perform under pressure could prove crucial. He will need to lead from the front to give SRH a fighting chance.

Given the conditions at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, the team that bowls first will have a better chance of securing a win, thanks to the possibility of variable bounce in the second innings.
