The 51st encounter of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season has Gujarat Titans (GT) facing off against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the iconic Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad today. The coin flip in the match went in SRH's way who decided to bowl first.  
GT vs SRH playing 11:  GT playing 11: Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill(c), Jos Buttler(w), Washington Sundar, Rahul Tewatia, Shahrukh Khan, Rashid Khan, Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore, Gerald Coetzee, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna  Impact players: Ishant Sharma, Mahipal Lomror, Anuj Rawat, Arshad Khan, Sherfane Rutherford     SRH playing 11: Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Heinrich Klaasen(w), Aniket Verma, Kamindu Mendis, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Pat Cummins(c), Harshal Patel, Jaydev Unadkat, Zeeshan Ansari, Mohammed Shami  Impact players: Abhinav Manohar, Sachin Baby, Travis Head, Rahul Chahar, Wiaan Mulder
  After a tough outing in their last match, Gujarat Titans, led by Shubman Gill, will be keen to return to winning ways. The team suffered a setback against Rajasthan Royals on April 28 in Jaipur, losing by eight wickets. 
 
  Despite putting up a strong total of 209/4, thanks to a stellar 84 off 50 balls by Gill—which included five fours and four sixes—and an unbeaten fifty from Jos Buttler, GT couldn’t defend the target. A spectacular century by young sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi, along with support from Yashasvi Jaiswal, helped Rajasthan chase down the score with ease and register their third win of the tournament.  
On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad come into this fixture on a positive note after a victory over Chennai Super Kings at the Chepauk Stadium. However, their overall campaign hasn’t lived up to expectations. With just three wins and six defeats from nine matches, the Pat Cummins-led side finds itself in a must-win situation. To keep their playoff hopes alive, SRH will need to win all of their remaining five games and rely on other results to go their way for a chance to break into the top four.
 
As both teams look to solidify their positions in the league, this match promises to be a thrilling contest with playoff implications for both sides.
 
Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad: Pitch report for GT vs SRH IPL 2025
 
The pitch conditions at the Narendra Modi Stadium remain unpredictable due to variations in the soil composition used for different matches. 
 
This has been evident throughout the ongoing IPL 2025 season, where some matches have seen batters dominate, comfortably hitting boundaries on batting-friendly tracks. On the other hand, certain pitches have offered assistance to bowlers, making it challenging for batters to score freely, forcing them to rely more on traditional shot-making techniques.
 
If the surface leans toward being batting-friendly, bowlers will need to maintain disciplined line and length, especially during the powerplay overs, rather than over-experimenting with the new ball. Conversely, a red soil pitch would be a welcome change for bowlers, offering more bounce and carry, unlike the black soil wickets, which tend to keep low and slow.
 
Another key factor that could influence the match outcome is the presence of dew, especially during the second innings. Dew has consistently affected teams bowling under lights, making it harder to grip the ball and execute plans effectively.
