In the 19th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) are taking on Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Sunday, April 6. Both teams are coming off contrasting results from the last matches as SRH are on three-match losing streak, GT on the other hand have registered back-to-back wins.
As the two skippers, Pat Cummins (SRH) and Shubman Gill (GT) took the field for toss, it was the GT skipper, who came out on top. After winning the toss, Gill decided to bowl first, thus inviting the hosts to put the score first on the board at their home turf in Hyderabad. “We are going to bowl first. Looks like a slowish wicket, different from the previous two games as it's a black soil surface. Generally it's a good wicket,” Gill said.
