IPL 2025: GT vs SRH Playing 11, SRH batters vs GT bowlers matchups

Gujarat Titans (GT) face the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in Match 51 of IPL 2025 at the Narendra Modi Stadium, with a potential chance to climb to the top of the points table. SRH skipper Pat Cummins won the toss and elected to bowl first against Gujarat in Ahmedabad.  GT remains a strong contender for a playoff spot, though their recent loss showed even top teams can stumble. In their last outing, Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler hit impressive fifties to post a formidable total in Jaipur. However, their effort was overshadowed by 14-year-old sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi, whose explosive century powered Rajasthan Royals to a stunning chase of 209 with more than four overs remaining.

 

Meanwhile, SRH are walking a tightrope. They need to win every remaining match and hope other results go their way. They found momentum with a dominant victory over CSK, where Mohammed Shami struck early and Ayush Mhatre steadied the innings. Despite a brief push by Dewald Brevis, SRH’s bowling attack, led by Harshal Patel and Pat Cummins, dismantled CSK. Jaydev Unadkat also contributed, helping SRH seal a convincing win and keep their playoff hopes alive.
