SRH Top Players
Heinrich Klaasen
Looking at how the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) top order has performed in the past few matches, middle-order batter Heinrich Klaasen’s role becomes crucial in this match-up. Klaasen is a great player who can play according to the situation. Although he is known as heavy hitter, but he is a very reliable inning builder. Against KKR, Klaasen scored 33 runs off 21, playing against his normal game. The South African also has a great track-record in Hyderabad having scored 496 runs in 12 innings.

Harshal Patel
The Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Hyderabad is not known for favouring any kind of specialized bowling. The venue has been known as graveyard for the bowlers. But, Harshal Patel could play a crucial role for SRH at this venue with his change of pace, not giving much pace could be effective, asking the batter to hit with more brute force. Harshal has so far taken 4 wickets in 4 matches, but he picked 3 of those in Hyderabad itself in the first two matches.

SRH vs GT: Pitch, Toss & Weather Reports
• Pitch & Toss Update – The Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad is known for his flat tracks that helps the batters. It is a high scoring venue that has already seen SRH 286 runs in their first match of the season. There is minimal assists for the bowlers, particularly the spinner. However, Lucknow Super Giants proved this season that once you able to thwart SRH’ top order, bowlers can certainly make some impact. Toss won’t play a big role here, however, the pressure of big total on the board in the second pays dividends. So the team that wins the toss, should opt to bat first.
• Weather Report – Rain is predicted few days prior to the match. However, it is likely to be hot and sunny on Sunday in Hyderabad. Temparature is expected around 36°C in the day time and as the evening falls, it will go down to around 28°C. There is 0% probability of precipitation, so there is unlikely of any rain threat during this match.
SRH vs GT Betting Tips
- This is a must win match for the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) after having previously lost all 3 matches, including one at home against Lucknow Super Giants.
- Gujarat Titans’ top three has been shining bright for the Titans so far in the tournament. Sherfane Rutherford in the middle-order has been exceptional. However, GT’s squad depth other than the two has not been tested yet in the season, which could be troublesome if GT loses some quick wickets.
- However, the worry for the Gujarat Titans would be their bowlers. Despite a strong showing vs RCB, the Rajiv Gandhi stadium is a heaven for the batters. And when it comes to making most of the surface, SRH have the most dethroning batting line-up with the likes of Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan and Heinrich Klaasen.
- In such scenario, can the Gujarat Titans bowlers get anything out of the surface which is literally a dead-rubber for the bowlers. And with Kagiso Rabada also missing, the odds are in favour of the Sunrisers Hyderabad.
- However, the Gujarat Titans’ form in the IPL 2025 cannot be overlooked. SRH have struggled when their top three trio gets out early and that would be GT’s plan this Sunday. Meanwhile, the likes of Shubman Gill, Jos Buttler, Sai Sudharsan and Sherfane Rutherford would certainly love to bat at the surface.
Bet on Sunrisers Hyderabad to WIN.
