SRH vs MI Today Match Toss Update: Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) take on Mumbai Indians (MI) as Hardik Pandya won the toss and elected to bowl first in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 at the Rajiv Gandhi International stadium on April 23.

After winning the toss, MI captain Hardik Pandya said:
“Feels good (on the applause). I would like to pass my condolences to the victims of the terrorist attack. We’ll bowl first. Looks like a good track, just one change for us – Vignesh comes in for Ashwani. We need to just execute our plans and take the game as simply as possible, plan properly.”
Meanwhile, SRH skipper Pat Cummins, after losing the toss, said:

“One change for us – Shami goes out. It is a cause for optimism, we know this surface and ground really well. We’ve played some really good cricket this year. (On the Pahalgam terror attack) It has been heartbreaking for us as well, our thoughts are with the victims and their families.”

“Very hot here in Hyderabad. There is a bias in the dimensions – 63m to the right and 70m to the left. Down the ground is 77m. Third time on this particular pitch, this is where all those high scoring games have come. The pitch is very dry and hard. It is a 200+ wicket, but will depend on who can take the early advantage. Both teams have some skilled operators of swing and seam. Won’t be as high as that first game against Rajasthan, but still a great batting surface,” Danny Morrison and Matthew Hayden analysed the pitch.
SRH and MI have locked horns with each other 24 times in IPL so far. While SRH have clinched wins on 10 occasions, MI have emerged victorious 14 times.
