The 43rd match of IPL 2025 will see Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) take on Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Friday, April 24, at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. SRH are having a really tough time this season. Out of the 6 matches they’ve played so far, they’ve only managed to win 2 games and are currently sitting at the bottom of the points table.
Their net run rate is -1.361, which shows how badly they’ve been beaten in some games. In their last match, they lost to Mumbai Indians (MI) by 7 wickets, with MI chasing down the target with 26 balls to spare.
Chennai Super Kings, led by MS Dhoni, aren’t doing any better. They’re placed at 10th position in the table, just above SRH, also with 2 wins and 6 losses. Their last match was also against MI, and it ended in a heavy defeat; CSK lost by 9 wickets, again with 26 balls remaining.
With both teams desperate for a win, all eyes will be on this match to see who bounces back. So, let's take a look at the last match scorecard, top bowlers and top batters.
