IPL 2025: Sunrisers Hyderabad have made a thumping comeback in the ongoing eighteenth edition of the Indian Premier League. Prior to the SRH vs PBKS clash, the runners-up of IPL 2024, SRH had lost four consecutive matches and were heavily criticized for their unapologetic approach towards playing an aggressive brand of cricket. But it is the same approach that worked for them in their game against the Punjab Kings, which was a high-scoring affair.

Sunrisers now have two wins from their last six games and are at 4 points with a Net Run Rate (NRR) of -1.245. Sunrisers Hyderabad defeated Punjab Kings by 8 wickets. Over 450 runs were scored in the PBKS vs SRH clash. Abhishek Sharma was the star of the night as he scored a quickfire 141 off 55 deliveries with a staggering strike rate of 256.36. Courtesy of Abhishek's heroics, Hyderabad chased down Punjab's 245 runs with nine balls remaining.
