GT 162/2 in 15 overs
Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad Live: He speeds up after crossing a quarter of the pitch, throws comes in to the striker's end. Klaasen, instead of catching it and breaking the stumps, just deflects the ball to the pole and that does the trick. Shubman Gill started that run quite slowly, which may not have been very smart considering he could see quite clearly that short fine l was sprinting to pick up the ball.
Gill run out (Harshal/Klaasen) 76 (38)
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: In the era of switch hits and range-hitting, Shubman Gill has crossed 50 in 25 balls without resorting to either. Shami returns for the 10th over, Gill tries to take on the first delivery, he ends up miscuing the shot but it lands between long on and deep midwicket. The long on fielder dives and seemed to have stopped it from reaching the boundary but replays showed that it wa four anyhow. Single next ball and then Buttler goes across the stumps early and ramps the third ball effortlessly for a six. Another single and then the perfect extra cover drive from Gill for four takes him past 50. He takes a single next ball.

GT 120/1 in 10 overs
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: Buttler takes his time to assess the conditions, scores just four runs off the first five balls he faces.

GT 103/1 in 9 overs
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: And Sai Sudharsan denied a well-deserved half-century. Zeeshan Ansari with the breakthrough and that is a very good catch from Heinrich Klaasen indeed. Fifth ball of the seventh is a googly outside off. Sudharsan looks to help it along its way offside but he edges it and the ball nestles itself in Klaasen's glove, which were at the right place at the right time. That is not luck, that is years and years of practice which makes that movement a motor reflext for a wicketkeeper.

GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: SRH have won the toss, and Pat Cummins says that they are fielding first.
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: The answer to that question is: Maybe not. But it will be a miracle if they qualify after a defeat today. SRH need four wins from their last five games to get to 14 points, which could be enough for a top four finish.
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: Nick Knight and Eoin Morgan on the pitch report today: “It's the second time that this surface is being used - 196 played 160 - GT v Mumbai Indians, GT winning. It (pitch) looks beautiful. The first game they (GT) lost against the Punjab Kings and the reason behind that was they were out-batted by the explosive power the Punjab Kings had, GT couldn't match it. The shift to the black soil suits their template, it suits their style of play. There's a lovely covering of grass tonight and there's a little bit of a subplot - Pat Cummins captained Australia to a World Cup win on this very wicket. So he'll know how to adapt to conditions. Things like slower balls into the wicket, getting spin introduced early, being as variable to try and take those wickets at the top of the order.”
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: Ishan Kishan has a grand total of one innings this season in which he showed the true range of his potential. That was in the first innings of the season and he has floundered ever since. To make matters worse, Kishan has a poor record against Washington Sundar and Rashid Khan. He strikes at 89.36 against Sundar and 116.41 against Rashid.
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: Karim Janat was handed his debut cap in GT's last game. He was then, like all of his teammates soundly hammered by 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi. He bowled just one over and 30 runs came off it. It will be interesting to see if he will be given a second cap today.
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: Jos Buttler needs just 12 more runs to get to 4000 in the IPL, and could be the third fastest to the mark, beating Suryakumar Yadav (2714 balls), who got there in MI's previous match.
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: The last time these two sides met, GT pulled off a comprehensive win largely thanks to a fast bowling masterclass from Mohammed Siraj.
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: Jos Buttler has shown this season exactly why he is regarded as one of the all-time greats in this format. He has scored over 400 runs in IPL 2025 at an average of 81.20 and a strike rate of 168.46.
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: There is no update from the GT camp on Kagiso Rabada. Judging by what Gill had said last month on the fast bowler's injury, there should've been some movement on that by now. Gill himself seems fit and fine, having sat out the opposition innings in the last match due to back spasms.
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: By stark contrast to SRH, GT's opening pair of captain Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan have been prolific. At the same time though, they don't fare too well on the strike rate front. Gill and Sudharsan have scored 541 runs at an average of over 60. But their scoring rate of 8.94 per over is the second-slowest in IPL 2025.
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: A major part of SRH's success last season was the incredible opening partnerships put up by Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma. Conversely, a lack of steady opening stands has been a key part of things going awry for them this season. In the 13 times they opened together last season, they scored 599 at a run rate of over 13 and averaged 49.91. However, in IPL 2025, they have tallied 316 as a pair - 171 of that came in one innings - and average 35.11. Their scoring rate has dipped to 10.89 per over.
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: SRH changed the idea of what a big score looks like last season in the IPL and their swashbuckling ways with the bat got them all the way to the final. This season, they changed almost nothing in terms of batting personnel. The swashbucklers are all almost exactly the same, with the addition of Ishan Kishan to that list in place of Aiden Markram. Yet, by stark contrast, SRH second to the bottom on the table on six points in nine matches. CSK are the only side below them and they are also the only side thus far to be ruled out of the race for the top four. If you adopt a big-hitting approach, you hit some and you miss some. In SRH's case, they hit many last season and missed many in this one.
GT vs SRH IPL 2025 Live Updates, Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad: A run of four consecutive victories seemed to have cemented GT's status at the top of the table but well, nothing is ever really cemented in the IPL, is it? After that run, they have lost two of their last four games which has led to them dropping all the way down to fourth.
