Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will host Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Match 67 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 on Friday.

RCB are flying at the moment, sitting at the top of the IPL 2026 points table with three back-to-back wins to their name. The defending champions have the best net run rate in the league, and anything short of a massive win for SRH will guarantee them a place in the top two.

Only a win against RCB will guarantee SRH a place in the top two.
