Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) looking to solidify their chances of making it to Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 Playoffs

GT's IPL 2024 match against KKR on Monday (May 13) was called off due to rain, ruling the two-time IPL finalists out of IPL 2024 playoffs race. For Gujarat, tonight's match will be about raising awareness about early detection of cancer and ending their campaign in IPL 2024 on a positive note.

The fixture holds of high importance for Pat Cummins-led Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), who are on the verge of cementing a spot in IPL 2024 Playoffs.

SRH currently have 14 points from 12 matches with an NRR of +0.406. Winning their remaining two matches against Gujarat and Punjab will secure SRH a playoff berth. Even winning at least one of their two remaining league matches would likely secure SRH a place in IPL 2024 playoffs as their positive NRR provides a big advantage.
