SRH vs MI, IPL 2025: Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) would be eyeing revenge when they host five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI) in Hyderabad on Wednesday. MI had defeated SRH by four wickets at the Wankhede last Thursday and the Hardik Pandya-led side would be eyeing their fourth win on the trot and rise from the bottom half of the points table.

With just two victories from seven games, hosts SRH are at the ninth spot in the standings. After winning their first game of the season, they only managed one victory in their next six games. To rekindle their dreams of making the playoffs, SRH must now perform a spectacular comeback in the second half of the season.

SRH vs MI, IPL 2025: Head-to-Head

MI have an edge in their overall head-to-head record against SRH. In the 24 meetings between the two teams, MI have won 14 and SRH have won 10. SRH have effectively utilized the home advantage, amassing five victories to MI's four at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, where the two teams have played nine games. Meanwhile, four of the previous five meetings have seen MI defeat SRH, while SRH have only won once.

SRH vs MI, IPL 2025: What to expect

Although the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium's pitch is typically flat, some of the IPL 2025 strips have performed unevenly. However, pitch number two, which is excellent for batting, follows the standard Uppal script. For bowlers who have no mobility or grip to work with, it's a nightmare. Because the ball sits up properly, batters can hit through the line with ease. A match full of boundaries and big hits is expected.

The weather in Hyderabad will be hot and muggy and there won't be any rain.
