Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) play the 41st match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) on April 25, 2024 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. The game starts at 7:30 PM IST.
The toss scheduled at 7:00 PM plays an important part as the team playing first scores a mammoth total, which becomes difficult for the other team batting second.
In their last meeting, SRH posted an IPL record total of 287, leading to a 25-run victory.

This is the must-win match for the Royal Challengers to stay in the fray as they languish in the last spot at the points table.
There are reports that Australian allrounder Glenn Maxwell will return to play today’s match for RCB after missing two games due to lack of form.
SRH has been in brilliant form, securing five wins out of the seven matches.
RCB, on the other hand, has struggled, managing only one win in their eight games.
