Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad plays host to Sunrisers Hyderabad's matches in the Indian Premier League (IPL). The venue is also slated to host playoff matches - Qualifier 1 and Eliminator - this year as SRH finished as the runners-up in IPL 2024.
Moreover, the crowd in Hyderabad loves its team, and SRH have a huge fan following, especially due to their earlier captain David Warner, who led the side to the glory back in 2016. However, the franchise hasn't won a single trophy since then. But with Pat Cummins as captain and their fearless approach, they are hoping to win the cash-rich league again this time around.
SRH have the firepower in them to go all the way in IPL 2025, and they showcased it in their opening game of the season itself. They smashed 286 runs against Rajasthan Royals to win the game by 44 runs and there is a possibility of records being broken in Hyderabad this year with the pitch being extremely flat.
