Sunrisers Hyderabad have endured a challenging season, securing only three wins in ten matches.

Delhi Capitals, although experiencing a dip in form with four losses in their last six games, remain in playoff contention. Their batting lineup, featuring Faf du Plessis and KL Rahul, has shown resilience, while the bowling unit, led by Mitchell Starc and Kuldeep Yadav, offers potency. DC’s previous seven-wicket victory over SRH earlier this season could provide a psychological edge.
The pitch in Hyderabad is known for being batting-friendly, often yielding high-scoring encounters. Teams winning the toss might prefer to bowl first, capitalising on any early movement before the pitch settles.
