Commenting on SRH’s performance, captain Pat Cummins said that the team needs to get more realistic. He said that the team may have to look back and judge what they could have done better with their options. “Our batters are best when they take the game on but looking back maybe we could have taken different options. It was mainly our fielding; overall bowling wasn’t bad. We should have taken a few catches and stopped them a bit earlier,” Cummins said.
In the opening match of the IPL 2025 season, Hyderabad had scored 286 runs against Rajasthan Royals, but since then, they have been struggling to make their mark. From SRH’s perspective, they started well but couldn’t last. SRH faltered under pressure from the KKR bowling attack. Vaibhav Arora and Harshit Rana wreaked the top order of SRH leaving the middle and lower orders exposed. Kamindu Mendis (27) provided hope for the team but couldn’t take the innings. Varun Chakravarthy (3 wickets) bundled SRH out for 120 runs in just 16.4 overs
