**Sunrisers Hyderabad Set Mammoth Target for Kolkata Knight Riders in Final IPL 2025 Match**

**Delhi, India -** In a clash of eliminated teams, the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) have set a daunting target of 279 runs for the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in their final Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 match at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.

Hyderabad, having won the toss and elected to bat, capitalized on a blistering start from openers Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head. Sharma contributed a quick 32 before falling to Sunil Narine. However, Head continued the onslaught, smashing 76 off just 40 balls, including 6 fours and 6 sixes.

The highlight of the innings was a spectacular century by Heinrich Klaasen, who reached the milestone in just 37 balls – tying for the third-fastest century in IPL history and the second-fastest by a foreign player, behind only Chris Gayle’s 30-ball hundred. Klaasen’s innings featured a flurry of boundaries and sixes, propelling SRH to a massive total. Ishan Kishan also chipped in with a valuable 29 off 20 balls.

KKR’s chase started with an early loss, their score stands at 37-1 after 3 overs.

Both SRH and KKR have had disappointing seasons, failing to qualify for the playoffs. Kolkata, led by Ajinkya Rahane, has 5 wins, 6 losses and 2 no results from their 13 matches. Hyderabad, captained by Pat Cummins, mirrors that record with 5 wins, 7 losses and 1 no result. While the match holds no bearing on the playoff standings, both teams are looking to end their season on a high note.

**Kolkata Knight Riders (Playing XI):** Quinton de Kock, Sunil Narine, Ajinkya Rahane, Manish Pandey, Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, Ramandeep Singh, Vaibhav Arora, Harshit Rana, Anrich Nortje, Varun Chakravarthy

**Sunrisers Hyderabad (Playing XI):** Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Ishan Kishan (WK), Heinrich Klaasen, Aniket Verma, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Abhinav Manohar, Pat Cummins (C), Harshal Patel, Jaydev Unadkat, Ishan Malinga.
