Gujarat Titans (GT) will face Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in 51st match of IPL 2025. The game will take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. It will begin at 7:30 pm.

Gujarat Look to Recover Quickly

Gujarat are keen to bounce back after their defeat against Rajasthan Royals. In that match, 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi shocked everyone. He smashed the fastest century of this IPL in just 35 balls. Moreover, he became the youngest player to score a century in IPL history — at 14 years and 32 days.

So far, Gujarat have performed well. Led by Shubman Gill, they have won six out of nine matches. As a result, they are placed fourth in the points table. Now, they aim to continue their momentum and secure a playoff spot soon.

However, their bowlers need to move past the previous loss. They must stay focused against a desperate Hyderabad team. Fortunately, Gujarat’s top order has been solid. Gill, Sai Sudharsan, and Jos Buttler have batted brilliantly. Still, the rest of the lineup must offer more support.

Hyderabad Face Must-Win Challenge

On the other hand, SRH are in a tough situation. They have won only three of their nine games. Therefore, another loss could end their playoff hopes.

The team, led by Pat Cummins, must win all their remaining matches. Although fans had high hopes from Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, and Ishan Kishan, they haven’t met expectations. Nevertheless, after a short break in the Maldives, the team hopes to return with better performances.

Pitch Report

The Ahmedabad pitch usually supports batters. Consequently, high-scoring games are common here. Teams often choose to bowl first because of dew in the second innings. Hence, any total above 220 can be considered competitive.

Weather Report

Thankfully, the weather looks perfect for cricket. The temperature will stay around 33°C on Friday evening. Also, humidity will remain low at 16%. Most importantly, there is no chance of rain. So, we can expect a full match.
