TABLA DE CONTENIDO
Sunriscyrabad una vez en un hilo con persecución
Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) face a do-or-die scenario as they welcome Delhi Capitals (DC) to the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium for Match 55 of IPL 2025. With only three wins in 10 matches, SRH must win all remaining games and hope for favourable results elsewhere to keep their playoff hopes alive.
Delhi Capitals, meanwhile, sit just outside the top four with 12 points but have lost momentum after a strong start. With four games left – three against top-table teams – this fixture becomes a must-win if they’re to stay ahead in the race.

Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium Pitch Report
Hyderabad has been a batting-friendly venue in IPL 2025 with four of five matches won by chasing sides. The pitch tends to slow down slightly in the second innings but offers minimal help to spinners. Pacers, especially those who hit the deck hard or bowl into the pitch, have had better success here.
