Ahmedabad, India – Gujarat Titans (GT) set a challenging 224-run target for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in Match 51 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 at Narendra Modi Stadium. At the time of writing, SRH are 63/1 after 7 overs in their chase.
GT’s innings was fueled by strong performances from Shubman Gill (76 off 38, 10 fours, 2 sixes) and Jos Buttler (61 off 37, 3 fours, 4 sixes), who put on an 87-run opening partnership and a 62-run second-wicket stand respectively. Sai Sudharsan also contributed a quickfire 48. Washington Sundar provided valuable support in the lower order. Despite late wickets, GT managed a competitive total.
SRH’s chase began positively with a 49-run partnership between Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head (20 off 16). However, the dismissal of Head by Prasidh Krishna slowed their momentum. Ishan Kishan and Abhishek Sharma are currently at the crease.
GT have a strong record against SRH, having won 3 out of their 5 previous encounters, with one match ending without a result. The current IPL season sees GT with 6 wins from 9 matches, while SRH have secured 3 wins from the same number of games.
