**Hyderabad, India (May 10, 2025)** – The Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Hyderabad will host a crucial IPL 2025 match on Saturday between the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). While SRH are already eliminated from playoff contention, KKR’s hopes hang in the balance, needing a win and favourable results elsewhere to reach the postseason.

The weather forecast predicts a hot day with temperatures ranging from 26 to 37 degrees Celsius, and no rain is expected. The pitch, known for its batting-friendly nature, has shown some variation this season, sometimes favouring bowlers. The recent match between SRH and DC saw a challenging wicket early on, which eased as the innings progressed, leaving the upcoming match’s conditions unpredictable. Dew is also expected to play a significant role.

Historically, the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium has seen 47 wins for chasing teams out of 83 IPL matches played. The highest successful chase at this venue stands at 247/2, achieved by SRH against the Punjab Kings in the current season. This match carries immense weight for KKR, who need to win all their remaining games to keep their playoff hopes alive. For SRH, the match offers an opportunity to end the season on a high note and assess their players ahead of the next IPL season.
