Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Delhi Capitals Team Previews

Sunrisers Hyderabad

Sunrisers Hyderabad's season has been a bit up and down so far. They have won only 2 out of the last 5 matches and lost the remaining 3. They lost by 38 runs against Gujarat Titans in the last match, but before that they had defeated Chennai Super Kings by 5 wickets but couldn’t carry the momentum in the last game against Gujarat Titans. They are sitting at the ninth spot in the points table with just three wins in 10 games. They have lost twice back-to-back against Mumbai Indians - once by 7 wickets, the other time by 4 wickets. But the big win of 8 wickets against Punjab Kings has kept their confidence intact. Sunrisers Hyderabad are out of the playoff race and will look to do everything in power to impress their fans.

Delhi Capitals

DC's journey was also not much different. In the last 5 matches, they have tasted victory 2 times and had to disappoint 3 times. They made a splash by winning a high-scoring match against Gujarat Titans, but lost to Kolkata Knight Riders by 14 runs. Delhi Capitals are at the fifth spot in the points table. They are so close to the playoffs but they need to get back to winning as soon as possible. They have six wins out of 10 matches played so far in IPL 2025. Now Delhi has less margin for the playoffs and they will have to play with a better combination in every match – otherwise the other teams will move ahead. They will be the unluckiest team of this season to miss out on playoffs, having won the first four matches of the season.

SRH vs DC, Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad Pitch Report and Weather Report

This ground of Hyderabad has always been batsman-friendly. The pitch here is flat, the bounce is consistent and the ball comes on a great bat. So whichever batsman gets set, this ground becomes a buffet for him. Till now, 82 IPL matches have been played here. In which 46 times the team chasing has won and 35 times the one batting first. This clearly shows that dew has a little influence and batting becomes relatively easier in the second innings.

SRH vs DC Match Prediction Key Performers

Top Batter: Abhishek Sharma

Abhishek Sharma is having a crazy good season with the bat. He hammered a stunning 141 against Punjab and followed it up with 74 against Gujarat. He is striking at over 180 and giving Hyderabad the kind of explosive starts that change games. If he gets going again, he can destroy any bowling attack. He has great average against Delhi Capitals and Delhi is one of his favourite opponents. He has hammered Kuldeep Yadav for 25 runs in just five balls in the last season. He will be the best option for the best batter.

Top Bowler: Axar Patel

Axar Patel is doing everything for Delhi. With the bat, he’s scored 232 runs with some solid knocks like 43 against KKR and 39 against GT. With the ball, he has 5 wickets too, and bowled a brilliant 2/27 recently. He’s that dependable all-rounder every team dreams of having. Always performs when the team needs it. He will be important with his arm bowl in this match. His chances of doing well against the left handers of Hyderabad are not higher but he is a clever bowler and captain so, he’ll find some way to do this.

SRH vs DC Today Match Prediction

Sunrisers Hyderabad is playing at home and when their batting is on, the scores have gone above 200. But consistency is still missing. This match is even more important for Delhi Capitals as they are in the playoff race. Faf du Plessis and Axar Patel are showing a bit of fight but overall the team seems unstable. They need to bring their A game in this match to defeat Sunrisers Hyderabad at their home ground. This season Delhi Capitals have defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad already and will be holding confidence in that match. Sunrisers Hyderabad are a very tough opponent but Delhi Capitals are still expected to win this match.
