Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad – All eyes on a high-voltage showdown at Narendra Modi Stadium
The TATA IPL 2025 is heating up, and Match 51 between Gujarat Titans (GT) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) is a make-or-break clash with playoffs around the corner. Two teams, two very different paths this season—but only one can walk away with the crucial two points. The match kicks off tonight at 7:30 PM IST, May 2nd, at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad.
Match Preview – It’s All or Nothing for SRH
This one’s huge for Pat Cummins and his SRH squad. With just 6 points on the board, they must win all of their remaining games to have a shot at the playoffs. Luckily, they come into this clash fresh off a gritty win over Chennai Super Kings. But let’s be real—GT aren’t going to make it easy.
Gujarat Titans, on the other hand, are still in the playoff mix. They’ve already beaten SRH once this season, and with players like Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler in red-hot form, confidence is sky-high.

Who Will Win Today’s Match?
GT vs SRH Dream11 Prediction: While SRH have the urgency, Gujarat Titans have the balance. Their top order is on fire, and their bowling—featuring Rashid, Siraj, and Prasidh—can choke even the best batting lineups. GT’s past dominance over SRH, plus their current form, gives them the upper hand.
That said, cricket is a funny game. If SRH’s batters click, and Cummins leads with discipline, we could be in for a thriller.
Final Verdict
- Most likely to win: Gujarat Titans
- Game-changer to watch: Heinrich Klaasen or Rashid Khan
- Best pitch pick: Stack your fantasy team with top-order batters
