Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will be taking on the Gujarat Titans (GT) in the 19th game of IPL 2025 in Hyderabad. Both teams have had a contrasting start to the tournament, with GT winning two matches on the trot while Sunrisers Hyderabad has lost their initial few matches.

Sunrisers Hyderabad are placed in the lower half of the points table after the first few games in the ongoing season, following a strong show against RR in the first match in Hyderabad, courtesy of an aggressive batting display.

GT, on the other hand, are back on track with back-to-back wins against MI and RCB, respectively, after losing their opening game of the season against Punjab Kings

This article provides the details of the playing 11 of the Sunrisers Hyderabad for their match against the Gujarat Titans scheduled to be played on Sunday, April 06, at 7:30 PM IST.

SRH Playing 11 vs Gujarat Titans- IPL 2025, Match 19::

Openers: Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma

The left-handed opening duo of Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma created a reputation for going hard from the first ball during the last season, but have not been able to replicate the same in the first few matches in IPL 2025.

Both Travis and Abhishek haven't been able to set the stage on fire this season and have been outdone by the bowlers on most occasions, with them going for the yorker against the duo.

Middle-Order Batters and All-Rounders: Ishan Kishan (wk), Nitish Kumar Reddy, Heinrich Klaasen, Abhinav Manohar, Aniket Verma

Sunrisers Hyderabad have failed to repeat the heroics of IPL 2024 as a batting lineup in the ongoing season and have perished in an attempt to play aggressively throughout the 20 overs, something which the orange army would like to avoid against GT

The Sunrisers Hyderabad batting lineup began the 2025 IPL season on a positive note with Ishan Kishan taking the aggressive route and scoring his maiden IPL century on his debut for SRH.

The left-hander has not lived up to the expectations since then and has accumulated low scores while batting at number three for SRH.

Like Ishan experienced, players Heinrich Klaasen and Nitish Kumar Reddy have also not fared any different with the bat and have, on most occasions, played outrageous shots to get out at a crucial moment in the match

Having said that, the batting of Aniket Verma has been a positive for SRH despite a string of defeats, as the young batter has shown good strokeplay against spin in the middle overs

Bowlers: Pat Cummins (c), Harshal Patel, Mohammed Shami, Simarjeet Singh, Adam Zampa

SRH's bowling, led by experienced fast bowler Mohamed Shami, has lacked the consistency that they showed during the last season, as Shami has struggled to bowl in good areas over and over, which has been the case with other bowlers as well

An experienced bowling attack, which includes the likes of Shami, Pat Cummins, Harshal Patel, and Adam Zampa, has looked clueless in the season so far

All things said, there is no denying the fact that Hyderabad's bowling lineup has been let down by the failure of their batting lineup to put an above-par score on the board.
