The 51st match of IPL 2025 between Gujarat Titans and Sunrisers Hyderabad at Narendra Modi Stadium features two teams with different trajectories. GT sits comfortably with 6 wins from 9 matches while SRH struggles with only 3 wins in 9 outings. 

GT boasts an impressive batting lineup led by the consistent Sai Sudharsan and explosive Jos Buttler, supported by a potent bowling attack featuring Prasidh Krishna and Mohammed Siraj. SRH counters with the power-hitting of Heinrich Klaasen and Travis Head, alongside their bowling spearhead Harshal Patel. Narendra Modi Stadium will host this encounter on May 2 at 7:30 PM IST.

GT vs SRH Toss Prediction

Analysis of Narendra Modi Stadium's recent matches reveals a strong advantage for teams batting first, with a 75% win rate when setting targets in IPL 2025. This continues the pattern from 2023 when batting first teams won 67% of matches here.

The significant gap between first innings (214.75) and second innings (188.75) averages in 2025 highlights the advantage of setting a target. While 2024 temporarily reversed this trend with teams batting second winning 75% of matches, the 2025 season has firmly reverted to favouring first innings batting.

The pitch tends to slow down as matches progress, making run-scoring progressively more difficult. Middle overs remain consistently high-scoring across seasons, but the death overs see increasing difficulty for batsmen. Given these trends, winning the toss and batting first appears to be the strategically favoured choice at Narendra Modi Stadium this season.

GT vs SRH OneCricket's Predicted Winner

Gujarat Titans to win this contest, capitalizing on their home advantage at Narendra Modi Stadium where teams batting first have won 75% of matches in IPL 2025. GT's balanced lineup featuring in-form Sai Sudharsan and Jos Buttler should thrive in the critical middle overs phase. While SRH possesses explosive potential through Klaasen and Head, GT's superior death bowling from Prasidh Krishna and their overall better form (6 wins vs 3) gives them the edge. Expect a high-scoring match with the team handling the middle overs and death bowling phases better emerging victorious.
