SRH will face RR (Source:@/mufaddal_vohra,x.com)
The highly anticipated Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season is all set to begin today, March 22, with defending champions KKR taking on RCB in a thrilling opener. But the action doesn't stop there; on Day 2, last year's runners-up, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), will begin their campaign against Rajasthan Royals (RR).
SRH will enter the contest with a psychological edge, thanks to their recent dominance over RR. Last season, the two teams faced off in two electrifying encounters, both of which were clinched by SRH.
The first meeting was a nail-biting affair, where SRH narrowly defeated RR by just one run in a high-pressure league game. The second clash, during Qualifier 2 in IPL 2024, saw SRH cruise a comfortable 36-run victory.
