They have played 8 matches so far, out of which they have won only 2 and lost 6 matches. Now everyone has a question in their mind that even after losing 6 matches, can Sunrisers Hyderabad reach the playoffs. So let us tell you that SRH still has a chance to reach the playoffs.

How will SRH reach the playoffs?

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) still have to play 6 more matches in the current edition of the IPL. If the team has to reach the playoffs, then they will have to win all the upcoming matches. If they manage to secure wins in all six of their remaining games, they will then have 16 points to their name. In IPL, teams often qualify for the playoffs with 16 points. However, in many seasons it has also happened that teams have managed to reach the playoffs even with 14 points.

SRH will now try to win all 6 matches and get 16 points. But for this the team will have to toil hard. Even a single defeat from here can spoil Hyderabad's work. If the team reaches 14 points after losing one match, then they will have to depend on the results of other teams to make it to the playoffs. SRH's net run rate is minus 1.361 at the moment. To improve this, now the Hyderabad team will have to win the remaining matches by a big margin. Now it remains to be seen how Cummins and company perform in the upcoming matches.

With which team is Hyderabad's next match

The Hyderabad-based side are scheduled to play two of their remaining six matches at home. Whereas their remaining four games will away from home. Their next match is versus five-time winners Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Friday, March 25. This match will be played at CSK's home ground MA Chidambaram Stadium. After that, SRH's team will face Gujarat Titans on May 2 and Delhi Capitals on May 5.
