SRH vs LSG – Playing 11, Toss Update & Match Prediction

Check out the playing XI, toss result, pitch report, and match prediction for today’s SRH vs LSG IPL 2025 clash. Stay updated with key match insights and expert analysis.

Sunrisers Hyderabad couldn't have asked for a better start to their IPL 2025 campaign, cruising to a commanding 42-run win over Rajasthan Royals in their opener. But while the victory was sweet, there was a tinge of disappointment – they came agonizingly close to breaking their own record for the highest team total in IPL history. 

SRH, who smashed 287 runs against RCB last season, looked set to rewrite the record books again. This time, they fell just two runs short, posting a staggering 286, with debutant Ishan Kishan stealing the show with a brilliant unbeaten century. Now, with confidence sky-high, they shift their focus to their next challenge: Lucknow Super Giants. 

On the other hand, LSG’s season got off to a nightmare start. Despite putting up a formidable 209 on the board, they somehow managed to lose to Delhi Capitals in a game that defied belief. At one point, LSG had DC reeling at 7-3 inside two overs, only for Vipun Nagraj and Ashutosh Sharma to pull off one of the most stunning comebacks in IPL history. Now, Rishabh Pant and his team are desperate to bounce back, but with an already shaky bowling attack, they're walking into a storm against this ruthless SRH batting lineup. Some are even predicting that this could be the match where Hyderabad finally shatters the 300-run barrier. Buckle up, because this one could be a run-fest.

SRH vs LSG Match Prediction 

As both teams have solid squads, predicting a winner in today’s match is difficult, but here’s how it might unfold:  

Match Prediction: The IPL is known for its tight contests, but if there’s one matchup where you’d feel pretty confident calling the winner in advance, it’s this one. Sunrisers Hyderabad are in red-hot form, and their batting lineup looks nearly unstoppable. Meanwhile, Lucknow Super Giants are still reeling from a gut-wrenching loss, and to make matters worse, their bowling attack has been hit hard by injuries. Everything seems to be stacking up in SRH’s favor, and unless LSG pulls off something spectacular, this one looks like Hyderabad’s game to lose.
