The recent form of Gujarat Titans is way better than that of Sunrisers Hyderabad. Gujarat Titans have won three games out of their last five games while Sunrisers Hyderabad have just one win in last five. Hyderabad lost their last match against Kolkata Knight while Gujarat won the last match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
As Gujarat Titans is a new franchise, these two teams have played just five games where Gujarat have been better with three wins. In 2024, Gujarat Giants won the first match by seven wickets while the second match was abandoned.
This is purely a batting friendly wicket with very little help for the bowlers. The ground has hosted 80 matches where the chasing team won 43 matches and why not, Batting friendly wickets always gets better in under light and dew is the other factor. The average first innings score of this ground is 165 runs.

Gill has made 41 runs from 36 balls when facing Shami and got out 2 times. His strike rate is around 114, which is not very high. He has hit 4 fours and 2 sixes, but Shami has kept him a bit quiet over the years.
Buttler has scored 79 runs from 62 balls against Shami and got out 2 times. He has hit 12 fours and 2 sixes. His strike rate is 127, which is decent. He once scored a big 54-run knock in 2022, but also got out for 0 in 2023.
Travis Head is a brilliant player and he plays at his best at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad. Head has an average of 48.13 at this ground, scoring 385 runs in just nine innings. He will open the innings and is able to score quick runs with the field restriction helping the batsman.
Ishan Kishan is due for a big innings yet again after scoring a fabulous hundred in the first match against Rajasthan Royals. However this is a perfect match for Ishan Kishan to get his form back. Kishan has an average of 37.83 at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad. The players are also helping Kishan in this match with no real threat.
Sa Sudharsan has been the second most run getter since 2021. In this season he has scored 186 runs in just three matches. Sai has an average of 62.00 per match with two half centuries. He will again lead the Gujarat batting lineup. Sai has an average of 34.33 against Sunrisers Hyderabad.
Shubman Gill is yet to find his full flow in this season. He has only scored 85 runs in IPL 2025 so far but he can deliver in this match. Gill has an average of 39.80 runs per match, scoring 398 runs. Shubman Gill will love the bounce of Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad. Gill will score 20+ runs in this game.
Abhishek Sharma is not in a great form this season having scored less runs than even Pat Cummins who plays at number 7 and 8. This match could change the course for top three of SRH as they will be hungry to do well in IPL 2025 and a home game could light up their eyes.
Shahrukh Khan is avoided by a lot of users in this match but if Gujarat Bat first, you should consider him in your fantasy teams. Shahrukh Khan will be an important player for Gujarat Titans this year batting at number four. He can play big shots in the middle overs and can provide good finish to his team.
Rahul Chahar and Anuj Rawat are not safe picks for this match. Both are impact players and may not get a chance. Chahar is unlikely to play as Zeeshan Ansari is doing well for SRH.
