SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) are set to play their final game of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 in Match 68 against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Sunday, 25 May. (Match Blog)
It is a repeat of last year’s final match, but both teams are out of playoff contention this year after poor results in the middle stages of the season. Defending champions KKR have been particularly disappointing, sitting in seventh place with 12 points.
The Knight Riders have seen their top-order falter throughout the season, with big-money signing Venkatesh Iyer being a big disappointment. However, bowler Varun Chakaravarthy has been a standout performer with 17 wickets in 12 games.
Meanwhile, SRH sit in eighth place with 11 points. They had a stunning start to the campaign, but then tailed off, with stars like Travis Head and Ishan Kishan failing to hold on to their form. However, a late resurgence has seen them win three out of their last five games.
