IPL 2025: SRH vs PBKS Probable Playing XI, Toss Timing, and Live Streaming Details

The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 gears up for an exciting clash as Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) host Punjab Kings (PBKS) in match number 27 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Saturday, April 12.

SRH vs PBKS: Match Overview

The showdown holds high stakes for both teams. SRH, despite a strong start to the season, have encountered a rough patch with four consecutive losses. Their struggles stem from inconsistent top-order batting and an underperforming bowling attack, both of which have undermined their playoff aspirations.

On the other hand, Punjab Kings have emerged as a well-rounded unit, winning three out of their first four matches. They have found stability with a solid combination of aggressive batting and tight bowling, putting them in a better position on the points table.

Sunrisers Hyderabad’s Form and Strategy

SRH's campaign is now hanging by a thread, and a win at home is vital to regain momentum. Captain Pat Cummins will be under pressure to spark a turnaround, especially from his bowling unit. The opening pair of Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma needs to provide a strong start, while Heinrich Klaasen will be expected to anchor the middle order.

Punjab Kings’ Consistency and Balance

PBKS have displayed balance in all departments. Skipper Shreyas Iyer has led from the front, while all-rounders like Marcus Stoinis and Glenn Maxwell provide depth. Their bowling attack, spearheaded by Arshdeep Singh and Yuzvendra Chahal, has consistently delivered under pressure.
