<p><strong>PBSK vs SRH 2025: </strong>What has just happened! Sunrisers Hyderabad Chased down 246 runs under 18.3 overs against Punjab Kings at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. This has been the highest successful run chase of the season and the second-highest chase in the history of IPL!</p>
<p>Abhishek Sharma's lightning-fast 144 and Travis Head's exceptional knock of 66 runs helped SRH to chase down 246 with ease. Before that, Harshal Patel somewhat restricted the runs with his four-fer. Nevertheless, it was Hyderabad's day and this is the kind of game you expect for a team like SRH.  </p>
<h2><strong>PBKS vs SRH Match Highlights</strong></h2>
<p><strong>Toss and Playing11s: </strong>It is the home of Sunrisers Hyderabad but they were the ones not happy with the pitches of Hyderabad. This time, however, the curators produced a pure flat surface with no help for the bowlers. It was going to be a run-fest and lucky Punjab Kings won the toss and opted to bat first. </p>
<p><strong>Punjab Kings Playing11: </strong>Priyansh Arya, Prabhsimran Singh (wk), Shreyas Iyer (c), Marcus Stoinis, Nehal Wadhera, Glenn Maxwell, Shashank Singh, Marco Jansen, Arshdeep Singh, Lockie Ferguson, Yuzvendra Chahal (Impact: Yash Thakur)</p>
<p><strong>Sunrisers Hyderabad Playing11: </strong>Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Ishan Kishan, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Aniket Verma, Pat Cummins (c), Harshal Patel, Zeeshan Ansari, Mohammed Shami, Eshan Malinga</p>
<h2><strong>Punjab Kings Putting Up Big Total</strong></h2>
<p>Punjab's openers Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran stood up with the Captian's call to bat first. They racked up 66 runs in the first four overs before losing Arya. Shreyas Iyer followed and kept the acceleration on and Punjab put up 89 runs in the batting powerplay. </p>
<p><span>Eshan Malinga, the Sri Lankan right-arm medium-fast, removed Prabhsimran and his wicket drew the sc</span><span>oring rate a bit down. However, Shreyas Iyer kept the scoreboard up all that time with a blistering knock of 84 runs off just 36 balls. </span></p>
<p><span><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202504/image_430x256_67faa6ca84f12.jpg" alt=""></span></p>
<p><span>Iyer's wicket in the 18 overs at 206 team score indicated Punjab would end their innings around 220-30 but Marcus Stoinis joined the party with a cameo of 34 runs in the last 11 balls. Punjab Kings put forth 245 runs and it was above par score for any surface. </span></p>
<h2><strong>Sunrisers Hyderabad's Remarkable Chase</strong></h2>
<p>Not many teams in the World T20 Leagues have openers like the duo of Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma, and today, it was all their show. It all started with Travis Head scoring 9 runs in the first over, Abhishek Sharma, from the other end, smacked 19 runs in the second over and it was him stealing the show then. </p>
<p>They put up 83 runs in the powerplay without losing a wicket and Travis Head hadn't got much strike. No bowler was able to even restrict the runflow and Sunrisers were marching to the target. Yash Thakur got a chance and trapped Abhishek Sharma in the powerplay but it was a NO BALL. Abhishek Sharma used this lifeline to his full potential and smoked an amazing 100* off just 40 balls. He dedicated this century to "the orange Army".</p>
<p><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202504/image_430x256_67faa6cd65511.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p>Chahal got Travis Head at 66 and Arshdeep Singh removed Abhishek Sharma at 144 but it was too late to ask anything as Ishan Kishan and Henrich Klaasen were in a hurry to end the losing streak. Klaasen ended up things in style with a four and they had 9 balls to spear in the chase of 246.</p>

<p>2016 Champions Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) are set to host Punjab Kings (PBKS) in match no 27 of the Tata Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 at the iconic Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium of Hyderabad on Saturday, 12th of April. The match will commence from 7:30 PM IST (Indian Standard Time) onwards.</p>

<p>It's noteworthy that the two teams' fortunes have diverged significantly thus far this season. The Sunrisers, who were considered as one of the favourties to top the table, haven't had a memorable IPL 2025 campaign so far. After smashing 286 runs in their opening match versus the Rajasthan Royals (RR), they have gone on to lose four successive games. Their strategy of scoring big runs has misfired, with scores of 120,163 &amp; 152 in their last three games.</p>
<p>The opening duo of Abhishek Sharma &amp; Travis Head have struggled to provide good starts to their team this season, while Ishan Kishan hasn't fired since slamming a century versus RR. The bowling department hasn't been top notch either, with the Pat Cummins-led side having the highest bowling average (41.47) and worst economy (10.73) among all 10 franchises this season.</p>
<p>Moreover, skipper Cummins has proven to be very expensive with the ball and the lack of a quality spin bowlers continues to haunt the 2016 winners.</p>
<p>The Punjab Kings (PBKS), on the other hand, come into this match on the back of a solid 18-run victory versus the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and they are currently placed fourth in the overall standimhs with three victories in four games. Their batting unit is performing well, with different players proving to be match-winners every game. Even in the absence of significant contributions from well-known players like Glenn Maxwell and Marcus Stoinis, Punjab have performed really well.</p>
<h2><strong>SRH vs PBKS IPL 2025: Pitch Report of the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium, Hyderabad</strong></h2>
<p>Hyderabad's Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium has been a batting-paradise in majority of the matches played at this venue this season. Although, the scores of the Pat Cummins-led outfit have decreased in their previous three matches, the average first-inning score at this venue in the previous ten games is 213, making it one of the high-scoring venues this season. Teams that have batted first have won 60 percent of those contests.</p>
<p>The most recent encounter played at this stadium was a low-scoring one, but it's certainly going to be an exception.</p>

<p>The Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and the Punjab Kings (PBKS) have played a total of 23 games versus each other in the IPL. Out of these 23 matches, the Hyderabad-based side have finished out on top on 16 occassions while Punjab have reigned supreme on just seven occassions.</p>

<h2><strong>SRH vs PBKS IPL 2025: ICC Cricket Schedule's Predicted Winner</strong></h2>
<p>The Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), led by Pat Cummins, hold a clear advantage over Shreyas Iyer's Punjab in this match-up, especially at their home ground. The trio of Heinrich Klaasen, Travis Head, and Abhishek Sharma have all produced game-winning performances at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium, according to the statistical research, which shows that the SRH batters have outstanding records there.</p>
<p>But PBKS has important weapons that could threaten SRH's hegemony. Travis Head has been dismissed twice in 4 balls by Arshdeep Singh, who has an exceptional record against SRH hitters. Strategic use of Arshdeep could weaken SRH's formidable top-order.</p>

Struggling Sunrisers Hyderabad host in-form Punjab Kings in IPL 2025's Match 27 at Hyderabad's batting-friendly Rajiv Gandhi Stadium. SRH, despite a record 286-run start, have lost four straight due to batting failures and the league's worst bowling (41.47 avg, 10.73 economy). PBKS arrive strong after beating CSK, sitting 4th with 3 wins. Though SRH dominate the historic rivalry (16-7), PBKS' Arshdeep Singh could trouble SRH's top order. Pitch favors big scores (avg 1st innings: 213), giving SRH (55% favorites) hope behind Klaasen and Head.

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will face Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Match 27 of IPL 2025 at Hyderabad's Rajiv Gandhi Stadium on April 12.

Meanwhile, PBKS, fresh off an 18-run win over CSK, sit fourth with three wins in four matches, thanks to consistent contributions from their batting lineup.

Hyderabad's pitch favors high scores (average first-innings total: 213), though SRH's recent performances have been underwhelming.

<p><span style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><strong>IPL Points Table 2025: </strong>We have moved beyond the "250" mindset in IPL 2025, and it seems that the old 170-odd thrillers are back. However, Punjab Kings defeated Lucknow Super Giants in a one-sided contest on Tuesday. </span></p>
<p>Batting first, Lucknow missed the trick and gave Punjab easy wickets. Pooran was again the savior for Lucknow, and the good part for Lucknow is the support from the middle order. The team posted 171 runs on the board.</p>
<p><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202504/image_430x256_67ec1e3912cd8.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p>In response, despite the early wicket of Arya, Punjab Kings showed positive intent. Prabhsimran Singh was the hero for Punjab and he proved that his retention was worth it. Prabhsimran's 69 off 34, Shreyas Iyer's 52* off 30, and Nihal Wadhera's 43* off 25 propelled Punjab Kings to the second consecutive win of the season. </p>
<p>Punjab Kings have made a strong start to their campaign with back-to-back victories in the tournament. Up next, they will play their first home game of the season, facing Rajasthan Royals at Mullanpur. Meanwhile, Lucknow Super Giants will aim for a comeback when they clash with Mumbai Indians at the same venue in a couple of days.</p>

<p><span>Punjab Kings (PBKS) registered their second win of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 after they beat Lucknow Super Giants by eight wickets at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on Tuesday. It was a stupendous effort from the team as they were exceptional with the bat and ball.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Asked to bat, Lucknow Super Giants didn't have the kind of start that they would've wanted as in-form batter Mitchell Marsh bagged a golden duck. Aiden Markram (38) looked in decent touch but he couldn't carry on the start that he had.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Soon after, Rishabh Pant fell (2) too as Lucknow Super Giants was reduced to 35 for three. Nicholas Pooran (44) and Ayush Badoni (41) then brought the team back into the game with their 54-run stand for the fourth wicket.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span></span></p>
<p><span>But their partnership also didn't last long as Punjab Kings (PBKS) kept taking wickets at regular intervals. Abdul Samad (27:12b, 2x4, 2x6) then played a brilliant cameo in the end and powered Lucknow Super Giants to a total of 171 for seven.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Chasing the target, Punjab Kings (PBKS) lost Priyansh Arya early but Prabhsimran Singh (69) played a blinder to take his team off to a flying start. He, along with skipper Shreyas Iyer (52*), added 84 runs for the second wicket that put Lucknow under massive pressure.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Impact player Nehal Wadhera (43*) played a vital hand as he and Iyer added an unbeaten 67 runs to take Punjab Kings (PBKS) home with eight wickets in hand.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>One of the eye-catching moments from the game came in the 14th over. On the last ball of the over, Ravi Bishnoi bowled a full around off, googly to Nehal Wadhera and the left-hander blasted it over wide long-on for a massive six.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span></span></p>
<p><span>The ball boy, who was stationed there, took a brilliant running catch. While it seemed a normal catch, PBKS head coach Ricky Ponting was left amazed by it. He was seen applauding the young boy and the video went viral.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>

<h2><strong>LSG vs PBKS 2025 Match Highlights</strong></h2>
<p>Punjab Kings won the toss and chose to field first. Lucknow's innings got off to a shaky start as Marsh departed without scoring, while Markram contributed a quickfire 28 runs before being dismissed by Ferguson during the powerplay.</p>
<p>Pooran played a vital knock of 44 runs, providing some stability in the middle, but Chahal eventually sent him back to the pavilion. Towards the end, Badoni and Samad added valuable runs with a solid partnership, ensuring Lucknow reached a respectable total.  </p>
<p><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202504/image_430x256_67ec1e3f55323.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p>Despite their efforts, Lucknow struggled to accelerate as Punjab’s bowlers kept the pressure on. Arshdeep Singh was the standout performer, delivering an impressive spell and claiming three crucial wickets in his four overs. His disciplined bowling played a key role in restricting Lucknow to 171 runs for the loss of seven wickets in their 20 overs. </p>
<p>Punjab Kings got off to a flying start in their chase, thanks to Prabhsimran Singh’s explosive batting. He wasted no time in taking on the bowlers, smashing boundaries and sixes early on. </p>
<p>Thakur bore the brunt of his aggression, conceding a four and a six in the very first over. Avesh Khan and Digvesh Rathi also felt the heat, as Prabhsimran continued to play fearless cricket, reaching his half-century in quick time. Shreyas Iyer provided solid support, finding the gaps and playing well-timed strokes. </p>
<p><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202504/image_430x256_67ec1e3912cd8.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p>Despite Priyansh Arya falling cheaply to Rathi, Punjab’s chase remained well on track with Prabhsimran leading the charge. However, his fantastic knock of 69 off 34 balls came to an end when Ravi Bishnoi took a well-judged catch near the boundary off Rathi’s bowling.  </p>

<p><span>Abdul Samad hit Punjab Kings bowlers all over the park and the highlight of his innings was an outrageous scoop shot that he hit against Arshdeep Singh. This made me stand and applaud him for his heroics. </span></p>
<p><span>On the 4th ball of the 18th over, Arshdeep Singh bowled a low full toss outside off, to which Abdul Samad came up with the unique shot.

<p><span>“I mean that was pretty average on a wicket which was providing help to seam bowlers. In the powerplay, it was stopping a bit and movement was also there, we could have hit the lengths more. </span><span></span></p>
<p><span>The batters don’t trust their defence much, they swing hard so I had two slips and a deep cover, just in case he swings and gets an edge, so I was attacking with two slips. I feel it’s a good total, we have to bat well to chase it down.”</span></p>
