SRH vs PBKS Dream11 Prediction IPL 2025 Match-27, Team News, Pitch Report, Squad, Fantasy Teams

Languishing right at the bottom of the points table, Pat Cummins-led Sunrisers Hyderabad would be hoping for a better outing the next time they step out on their home turf, i.e., the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. Their next task in hand is the high-flying Punjab Kings, who have been ruthless in their approach so far this season.

With 4 losses and only a solitary win from 5 matches, Sunrisers Hyderabad are languishing right at the bottom of the points table. After winning their opening match against RR at this very venue, SRH has been awful, especially the captaincy of Pat Cummins, which has been nothing but a huge disappointment. Can they turn things around before it gets too late? It would be interesting to see.

Punjab Kings, on the other hand, would be hoping to get closer to the pole position on the points table. Having won 3 out of 4, PBKS currently sits at the 4th position on the points table, and a win could take them into the top 3. Shreyas Iyer has been exceptional with his leadership and has made PBKS a robust unit. The Kings will surely start as the favorites in this fixture.

SRH vs PBKS Team News and Expected Playing XI

SRH Team News

• Problems aplenty for SRH after losing 4 games on the trot.
• Pat Cummins should sit out and bring in Eshan Malinga, a bowler who hasn’t been exposed to many batters around the world. Pat Cummins has been in awful bowling form, and his captaincy is going nowhere. Heinrich Klaasen as captain could be a good idea for SRH.
• Harshal Patel missed the last game due to illness. He should be fit now after a 6-day break and replace Sumarjeet Singh in the eleven.
• It’s high time Rahul Chahar should get into the eleven. Zeeshan and Rahul could form a potent leg-spin duo.
• Batters have been a big headache for SRH, but the team management won’t tinker much in the batting unit.
• For the fourth overseas spot, there could be a toss-up between Wiaan Mulder, Kamindu Mendis, and Adam Zampa.

SRH Expected Playing XI: Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Kamindu Mendis/Rahul Chahar/Adam Zampa, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Aniket Verma, Pat Cummins (c), Zeeshan Ansari, Harshal Patel, Mohammed Shami
IMPACT SUB: Jaydev Unadkat

PBKS Team News

• Punjab Kings are flying high and have no injury concerns in the camp.
• Suryansh Shedge sat out in the last game, and once again he will miss out.
• Yuzvendra Chahal’s form is a big concern. He needs a good game to get going.
• Marcus Stoinis has been a total flop along with Glenn Maxwell. However, Maxwell has chipped in with some wickets, so he might keep his place, but Stoinis could be sidelined for like-for-like replacement Azmatullah Omarzai, who is a better bowler than Stoinis and is more than handy as a batter.

GT Expected Playing XI: Priyansh Arya, Prabhsimran Singh (wk), Shreyas Iyer (c), Marcus Stoinis/Azmatullah Omarzai, Nehal Wadhera, Glenn Maxwell, Shashank Singh, Marco Jansen, Arshdeep Singh, Lockie Ferguson, Yuzvendra Chahal
IMPACT SUBS: Yash Thakur, Vyshak Vijaykumar
