Two teams with contrasting forms are ready to take on each other in the Indian Premier League (IPL) battlefield. We are talking about 10th-placed SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH), who will lock horns with the Punjab Kings (PBKS) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium, Hyderabad, on Saturday, April 12.

SRH, who promised to break the 300-run barrier, have faltered big time this season. They started the tournament with a win but are currently on a four-match losing streak. Skipper Pat Cummins has been a letdown too, having taken just four wickets in five games at an alarming economy of 11.16.

Punjab, meanwhile, are in the middle (fifth) of the IPL 2025 points table. Priyansh Arya hit a mind-boggling century in the last game. It would've certainly given a boost to PBKS. Before the match starts, let's have a detailed preview of the much-anticipated fixture.
