GT vs SRH Live Score, IPL 2025: Sunrisers Hyderabad take on Gujarat Titans in must-win clash at Narendra Modi Stadium
Despite the setback, GT remain firmly in playoff contention, sitting in the top four with 12 points from nine games. With a well-balanced side led by Shubman Gill, the Titans have combined consistent batting with dependable bowling. Sai Sudharsan, the current Orange Cap holder, has been the backbone of the batting lineup, tallying 456 runs so far. He’s closely supported by Gill (389 runs) and Jos Buttler (406), forming one of the tournament’s most threatening top orders.
The bowling unit is equally potent. Prasidh Krishna leads the pace attack, while Rashid Khan has found rhythm again, bolstered by Mohammed Siraj and Ishant Sharma. Washington Sundar adds stability with economical spells in the middle overs. GT will draw confidence from their dominant earlier win over SRH, where Siraj’s 4-17 dismantled Hyderabad’s lineup.
Sunrisers Hyderabad face a must-win scenario. With only three victories in nine matches, their campaign is hanging by a thread. Their explosive top order, Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma, has misfired in recent outings, while middle-order names like Klaasen and Ishan Kishan have failed to make meaningful contributions. Young Aniket Verma, surprisingly, has emerged as a key six-hitter in an otherwise misfiring lineup.
Bowling has been equally inconsistent. Harshal Patel has impressed with smart variations, but Cummins and Shami have struggled to provide breakthroughs when needed.
For GT, it’s a chance to bounce back. For SRH, it’s a fight for survival. Friday’s clash promises high stakes and plenty of drama.
