In a quest to redeem themselves after the onslaught at the hands of the 14-year-old prodigy Vaibhav Suryavanshi, the Gujarat Titans will head back to their home, i.e., the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, for match 51 of Tata IPL 2025 against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. Titans were taken down by RR in their last game by 8 wickets, whereas Sunrisers took a sigh of relief after defeating Chennai Super Kings in their own den by 6 wickets. In this post, we have come up with free expert tips for IPL 2025 match 51, GT vs SRH.
Playing at home, the Gujarat Titans will be fancying their chances of a win. Sunrisers have been good in bits and pieces throughout the competition, but inconsistent performances has haunted their campaign this season. Therefore, GT has the upper hand heading into this contest. Now let’s move on to get essential cricket tips for the GT vs SRH match.
SRH: 40% win chance GT: 60% win chance
Sai Sudharsan has scored over 450 runs in this competition and has been the batting mainstay of Gujrat Titans. He is the current Orange Cap holder and will be crucial for GT's cause. Therefore, we are backing him to score over 30.5 in this match.
Joss Buttler scored a 50 in the last game against RR and is the second highest run/getter for GT this season after Sai Sudharsan. With him being the in-form batter, he is expected to score heavily in this game.
Prasidh Krishna is the leading wicket taker for GT this season with 18 scalps to his name from just 9 matches. He has been balling in the middle overs and has taken wickets with ease. Therefore, we are backing him to emerge as a top baller in this match.
Travis Head hasn't been in the best of forms this season for Sunrisers Hyderabad. He's due of a big knock and we are backing him to perform in this game. However, this could be a risky bet, but worth taking.
Check out the IPL prediction for the GT sv SRH match.
Gujarat Titans were showing consistency until they bumped into their neighbors, Rajasthan Royals, at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s onslaught completely bamboozled the Titans, and all of a sudden, they are looking to revive themselves from the nightmare they had against RR.
When we talk about Gujarat, we can’t go beyond the top 3 batters. GT’s top 3, comprising Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, and Jos Buttler, have done the bulk of the scoring for the side. Courtesy of the show their top 3 batters are putting up GT’s middle order is yet to be exposed properly, which could be a worrying sign, especially if they make it to the playoffs and somehow their top order collapses in any of the playoff games.
In their remaining matches, or at least in the next two games, Gujarat should give some game time to their middle order, comprising Shahrukh Khan, Rahul Tewatia, and Washington Sundar, who have so far given limited opportunities. Sherfane Rutherford has been batting at no 4 for the majority of the games and has played his role perfectly. However, all other names mentioned above haven’t had the opportunity to be there in the middle.
Talking about their bowling lineup, Parsidh Krishna is leading the pack with 18 scalps to his name, and Rashid Khan is slowly coming into his own, especially in the last two games. However, Mohammed Siraj’s spark is diminishing game after game. He started the season well with 8 wickets in just 2 games, but after that, the pacer has been a target for the batters in the powerplay. Siraj needs to step up along with others, and also the captain should give enough overs to Ravi Sai Kishore, who is the leading spinner for the side this season.
If we ignore SRH’s last game against CSK at Chepauk, their bowling has been the worst this season. Chepauk’s wicket was slow and favored the bowlers, which resulted in SRH’s bowling department making a mark, but are these bowlers really performing to their potential?
Sunrisers Hyderabad’s batting lineup has struggled to perform as a cohesive unit, except for a couple of matches. Abhishek Sharma and Heinrich Klaasen have been the only reliable performers, consistently standing strong against opposition bowlers. Meanwhile, Travis Head has lacked discipline in his approach, and the same can be said for Nitish Kumar Reddy and Ishan Kishan, who have failed to deliver impactful innings. If SRH’s batting unit can find consistency and fire together, they have the potential to become a formidable force against their opponents.
