Sunrisers Hyderabad, struggling to find their rhythm in IPL 2025, will be hoping for a resurgence with the bat in front of their home crowd as they face a rejuvenated Mumbai Indians (MI) on Wednesday. With only two wins from their first seven matches, SRH find themselves in a perilous position. Their once-promising batting lineup has often faltered, and their bowlers have failed to make a significant impact.

SRH’s one-dimensional approach has been laid bare, especially when it comes to playing on slow and turning tracks. Their struggles have been particularly evident in their home games, having lost two matches already at their home ground. A recent four-wicket defeat to Mumbai Indians at Wankhede, where the pitch offered grip and turn, highlighted their vulnerabilities in challenging conditions.
