Sunrisers Hyderabad will play Gujarat Titans in the 19th match of the 2025 Indian Premier League at Hyderabad's Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. The game will be played on April 6 at 7:30 PM IST.

Sunrisers Hyderabad will face Gujarat Titans in the 19th match of the 2025 IPL. This thrilling encounter will be played at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad.

Gujarat Titans are fourth in the points table with two victories and a loss in three matches. They defeated Royal Challengers Bengaluru by six wickets in their last match and are confident ahead of this match. Kagiso Rabada has gone back to South Africa due to personal reasons and will not be available for this match, which is a big blow.

Sunrisers Hyderabad, however, are bottom of the points table with a single win and three defeats from four matches. Having won their first match, Sunrisers Hyderabad have gone off the rails in their previous three games and will be looking to revive fortunes by going back to their home stadium.

Match Preview

Sunrisers Hyderabad

Pat Cummins will be a worry. His side has lost three on the trot in the tournament. In their previous match, they were defeated by Kolkata Knight Riders by 80 runs. The batting unit has been unsuccessful in the last three matches, and Cummins needs them to stop getting defeated. They are playing at home, and Cummins wants to utilize the conditions.

Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma have not performed in the past three games, and the team hopes that they will play well in the initial stages. Ishan Kishan must find his form and contribute runs with Nitish Kumar Reddy and Kamindu Mendis in the middle order. Heinrich Klaasen adds depth to the batting line-up in the lower middle order and will hope to play well with Aniket Verma and Pat Cummins.

Mohammed Shami and Pat Cummins have not played their best at the top, and the team requires them to start early and set the team up in a dominating position. Zeeshan Ansari and Kamindu Mendis will need to curb the scoring rate in the middle overs. The team looks forward to a good show from Simarjeet Singh and Harshal Patel in the secondary roles.

Gujarat Titans

Shubman Gill and his team are upbeat for this match. The team performed very well in their previous match, winning it convincingly against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The batting order will be boosted with the 8-wicket win. Gill is aware of the strengths of the opposition and is looking for an aggressive and positive game from his players.

Sai Sudharsan is in good touch and will try to form a solid partnership with Shubman Gill. Jos Buttler scored a game-winning knock in the previous match and will now have to form partnerships with Sherfane Rutherford and Shahrukh Khan in the middle order. Rahul Tewatia, Arshad Khan, and Rashid Khan will try to score runs quickly in the last overs.

Kagiso Rabada's unexpected exit has had an impact on the balance of this bowling attack. Mohammad Siraj and Mohammad Arshad Khan have to deliver the early breakthroughs to place the team in a dominant position. Prasidh Krishna performed well in the previous match and will have to perform well with Ishant Sharma in the middle overs. Rashid Khan's poor form is a major worry and he has to perform well with Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore.

Pitch Report

The Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad is famous for its flat, batting-friendly pitch. As the game progresses and the pitch dries out, we might see the spinners start to make an impact. In the early stages, with the weather being cloudy and possibly humid, the fast bowlers could take charge.

Toss Prediction

This venue is considered the best batting surface in the IPL, allowing batsmen to play freely. High scores are quite common here. However, teams often struggle to rack up big totals because the pitch tends to favor spinners as the game progresses. The team that wins the toss will likely choose to bat first.

Weather Report

With only a 5% chance of interruptions, we don't expect the weather to be much of a factor. The temperature is predicted to reach a high of 35°C and a low of 24°C.

Head to Head

Gujarat Titans came out on top with a 3-1 victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad in this match. The two teams faced off last season, and GT emerged victorious then as well.

Venue Details

The Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad is known for its fantastic batting surface. Batsmen really get to showcase their skills here. Fast bowlers, however, find it a bit challenging on this pitch and need to put in extra effort to make an impact. On the flip side, spinners have thrived in these conditions and have seen plenty of success.

Match Prediction

The Gujarat Titans boast some strong batsmen, but their bowling lineup seems a bit lacking. They'll be bowling on one of the flattest tracks in the IPL, so the onus is on the bowlers to help secure a win for their side. Meanwhile, Sunrisers Hyderabad have a powerful batting lineup and a solid track record at this ground. We anticipate a tight match, but the Sunrisers are the favorites to come out on top.

Sunrisers Hyderabad for the win!

Betting Tips

Sunrisers Hyderabad have struggled lately, losing their last three matches, while GT has been on a winning streak, taking their last two games. Still, we anticipate a stronger showing from SRH, especially playing at home. GT tends to rely heavily on their top order, so if they lose a few early wickets, it could really set them back. Historically, SRH has a win percentage of 54% against GT, which gives them a slight edge.

Bet on SRH.

Top Fantasy Picks Dream11 Prediction

Sunrisers Hyderabad Key Players

Travis Head didn't perform very well in the previous game, but we're supporting him again because he was the most consistent batsman of his team, so he's our first choice for the next game.

Harshal Patel won the Purple Cap in the previous season and has made a good start this season as well. Patel has picked four wickets till date and is the top wicket-keeper for his team, so he's our first choice for the match ahead.

Abhishek Sharma will open as the first batsman in the batting line-up, with 484 runs at a strike rate of 204 from 16 games last season. He's our top recommendation.

Gujarat Titans Key Players

Sai Sudharsan has once again been sensational for the Gujarat Titans this season. He hit two half-centuries in three games and is also his team's leading run-scorer with 186 runs, and is thus our top bet for the next game.

Sai Kishore has been Gujarat Titans' best bowler this season. Kishor has picked six wickets from this season to date and is his team's top wicket-taker and thus our recommendation for the coming match.

Rashid Khan - The GT's spin-bowling attack will be led by Rashid Khan, who is our strong recommendation for this opponent.
