Sunrisers Hyderabad's IPL 2025 season is on a downward spiral, with the side now facing the prospect of finishing last after a fourth straight loss. Their highly touted aggressive strategy has come back to haunt them, laying bare severe cracks in batting as well as bowling units.
Key Highlights:
-
Batting Struggles: SRH's opening order, headed by Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma, failed once more, with Heinrich Klaasen's 71 and Abhinav Manohar's 42 being the only resistance in a disappointing score of 143 against Mumbai Indians.
-
Bowling Collapse: The bowling unit, once SRH's strength, has lost its bite. Pat Cummins and Mohammed Shami are finding it hard to pick wickets, while the spinners have the worst economy and strike rates in the league.
-
Auction Blunders: Management is being blamed by fans and experts for letting go of players such as Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Marco Jansen, whose replacements have been below par. SRH heroes from the past are now shining for other teams.
-
Fan Anger: Social media is full of demands for drastic changes in strategy and team selection to save the season.
If SRH does not change soon, the wooden spoon may be their sole reward this season.
