IPL 2025: Is SRH Eliminated Or Alive?

Because already known that two teams have been eliminated from the ongoing season of the IPL and they are Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals. These two teams are officially out of the tournament, and this is mainly due to the pathetic performance they had put up this year.

In this context, there were doubts on whether Sunrisers Hyderabad would put up a good performance in the crucial game against Gujarat and keep their play off hopes alive, or if they would mess it up. As feared, Hyderabad put up a bad show in the game against Gujarat and ended up losing by a comprehensive margin.

This essentially means that Sunrisers Hyderabad is theoretically still in contention for the play-offs. But this is practically impossible, considering the current form of decide, and also the table equations.

For Hyderabad to qualify for the play-offs, every other top team in the table must lose consecutive games and SRH must win every single one of their remaining games. This might sound pragmatic on paper, but it is practically impossible, and it can perhaps be deducted that the season is pretty much over.

Win against Gujarat in this crucial game could have amplified the chances but that simply wasn’t to be. Subsequently, Hyderabad is currently in the ninth position on the table, but the positive thing is that they have one more game in hand, which could potentially keep them in the tournament.
