Sunrisers Hyderabad had another rough outing in IPL 2025 as they lost four wickets inside the first six overs against Mumbai Indians. Playing at their home ground, Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, SRH ended the PowerPlay at a shocking 24/4 their fourth-lowest PowerPlay score in IPL history.

This was the third time ever that SRH lost four or more wickets inside the PowerPlay in the IPL:

  • 24/4 vs MI – April 23, 2025 (Hyderabad)
  • 25/4 vs PWI – April 17, 2013 (Pune)
  • 29/5 vs RR – April 27, 2013 (Jaipur)

Mumbai Indians made a statement from the first ball. Trent Boult struck early, removing Travis Head with his second ball. Then came a controversial moment, Ishan Kishan walked off after thinking he edged Deepak Chahar, but replays showed there was no contact. Still, the decision stood. Soon after, Abhishek Sharma fell to Boult, and Nitish Kumar Reddy was taken out by Chahar. Four wickets fell in quick time, and fans on social media didn’t hold back their reactions.

SRH’s Lowest Total in IPL: A Not-So-Proud Record

If you’re wondering what SRH’s lowest total ever in IPL is, it came against Mumbai Indians in 2019 when they were bowled out for just 96 runs at the same venue in Hyderabad. In that game, Alzarri Joseph tore through their lineup with a six-wicket haul. Sadly for SRH fans, it seems like history might be repeating itself.

SRH started IPL 2025 with hopes of improving on last year’s performance. But things have gone from bad to worse. With only two wins so far, the team looks out of rhythm. Their batting is over-reliant on Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma. Klaasen hasn’t fired, and Nitish Kumar Reddy has struggled. Their bowling isn’t helping either, with Shami and Cummins leaking runs and their spinners being the least effective in the tournament. Both teams wore black armbands to pay tribute to the victims of the Pahalgam terror attack, showing solidarity beyond the game.
