SRH vs KKR Live Score, IPL 2025: Sunrisers Hyderabad 22/0 (2); Head, Abhishek attack early against Kolkata Knight Riders
Welcome to Sportstar's LIVE coverage of the Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Kolkata Knight Riders IPL 2025 match being played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi.
Both teams are out of contention for the Playoffs but would want end the season on a high and secure a victory.
Sunrisers were languishing at the bottom of the table throughout the season and suffered a mighty fall in standard after their runner-up finish in the previous season.
Kolkata Knight Riders, on the other hand, was hoping to make it to the Playoffs when the IPL resumed, even if it remained a remote chance. But it was a washout against Royal Challengers Bengaluru on May 17 that extinguished the defending champion's hope.
The team which wins today will move up to the sixth place in the points table, and would hope Lucknow Super Giants loses its final game to hold onto that spot.

Josh Hazlewood Prioritised IPL Over Australia? Pacer Responds To Stinging Criticism
Last Updated: In a column, Mitchell Johnson had raised questions over Josh Hazlewood's decision to play in IPL instead of preparing for WTC final. Australia fast bowler Josh Hazlewood says playing in IPL as part of his preparations for the ICC World Test Championship final was the right call citing the inclement weather back home after a stinging criticism from former teammate Mitchell Johnson. Australia suffered a five-wicket defeat to South Africa in the WTC final following which Johnson questioned the logic behind Hazlewood playing T20 cricket in IPL. He also criticised other senior Australia players indicating that a few of them might be sticking around just for an Ashes send-off later this year. The IPL was suspended briefly for a week during which Hazlewood, who represented Royal Challengers Bengaluru flew home. However, once the T20 tournament resumed, the 34-year-old returned to India and played a key role in RCB's maiden title triumph. 'We've seen concerns about Hazlewood's fitness in recent years, and his decision to prioritise returning to the delayed Indian Premier League over his national team preparations raised eyebrows," Johnson wrote in The West Australian. 'Our successful 'big four' bowling attack of Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Pat Cummins and Nathan Lyon can't be taken for granted as a lock going forward either. If veteran players are sticking around just for the Ashes as a send-off, it does beg the question of whether that's the right mindset. It's crucial that we embrace the future and build confidence in selecting our next Test players," he added. Hazlewood reasoned that it's difficult to replicate 'intense' match conditions in training. The Age. 'We know what's going on in inside our rooms. It seemed far and away the best place to get ready for any type of cricket that was coming up. The weather was definitely a factor as well. Just getting over there and playing intense competition like that, it's hard to replicate in training." 'Sydney, it was raining and I had literally nowhere to bowl. I got to Brisbane for three or four days and it was very wet. We were lucky to get on. I just thought the best place to bowl was India. We were still in the competition, we were going to play semis, and I was going to be there for 10 days. I think it was comfortably the best option," he added. First Published:

After war of words with Mohammed Siraj at Leeds, here's a few instances where Harry Brook has been at odds with India
On Sunday, Mohammed Siraj and England batter Harry Brook had a tense exchange of words in the middle after The Englishman had struck the Hyderabad bowlers for a couple of boundaries. While that face off ended fairly quickly, you couldn't help but notice that India celebrated a little too enthusiastically when Brook was dismissed for 99, holing out to Shardul Thakur off Prasidh Krishna's bowling. The uneasy relationship between the outspoken Brook and India isn't something new with the England white ball captain seemingly always at some sort of odds with the Indians. Here are a few instances: Brook pulled out of the Indian Premier League for the second year running after he said he wanted to concentrate on his national side. Brook was bought by Delhi Capitals for Rs 6.25 Crore in the mega auction in November 2024. 'I have made the very difficult decision to pull out of the upcoming IPL. I apologise unreservedly to the Delhi Capitals and their supporters. I love cricket. Ever since I was a young boy, I have dreamt of playing for my country, and I am extremely thankful to have the opportunity to play the game I love at this level,' he had said in a statement. 'I know not everyone will understand, and I don't expect them to, but I have to do what I believe is right, and playing for my country remains my priority and focus. I remain hugely grateful for the opportunities I have been given and the support I receive,' he had added. Due to this, the England player is expected to be banned from the IPL for the next 2 seasons. According to a new rule introduced by the IPL, 'Any player who registers in the player auction and after getting picked at the auction, makes himself unavailable before the start of the season, will get banned from participating in the tournament and player auction for 2 Seasons.' Brook had also pulled out of the league in 2024 when he had lost his grandmother. 'Whilst I don't think I should need to share my personal reasons behind this decision, I know there will be many asking why. So I do want to share this. I lost my grandmother last month – she was a rock to me and I spent a huge amount of my childhood in her home; my attitude to life and love for cricket was shaped by her and my late grandfather,' he had posted on Instagram. This was also the reason he had pulled out of the India tour in January 2024. Brook had also irked a few people when he said that he was glad to shut the Indian fans who were 'slagging' him off before he scored his first century of the 2023 season against Kolkata Knight Riders, adding that he was glad he could shut them up. Before this century, Brook had not caught fire in the Indian Premier League, scoring 13, 3 and 13 in his first 3 matches resulting in a lot of chatter online about the Englishman's form. 'You go on social media and people are calling you rubbish. There's a lot of Indian fans out there who'll say well done tonight. But they were slagging me off a few days ago. Glad I could shut them up to be honest,' Brook said after the match. The KKR connection continued in 2025 once again when after getting bowled for 17 runs by a wrong un from Varun Chakaravarthy in the first T20I in Eden Gardens between India and England, Brook had blamed the smog in Kolkata for England's troubles reading spin. 'With the smog the other night, it was a lot harder to pick. Hopefully the air is a bit clearer here and we can see the ball a bit easier,' Harry Brook had said ahead of the 2nd T20I in Chennai. In that match, Brook met a similar fate at the hands of Chakaravarthy again, who sent the then England vice captain back to the hut for 13 runs. This time when he was dismissed, India stalwarts Sunil Gavaskar and Ravi Shastri were in the commentary booth and did not pass a chance to bring up Brook's comments. 'You don't need the smog!' Ravi Shastri said when Brook was bowled. 'The ball just snuck through and hit the stumps.' After a short pause, Sunil Gavaskar joined in: 'Well you said it! The light is clearer here in Chennai. At Kolkata there was some smog. No smog here. No idea where the ball was going. It hit the top of the stump. Harry Brook gone for 13. Look, is there any smog there?'

1st Test: I was trying to focus on what worked for me, says Bumrah on fifer against England
Leeds, June 23: India's fast-bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah said his magnificent 5-83 against England in the ongoing first Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test at Headingley was down to him focusing on what worked well for him after assessing conditions. Bumrah was India's standout bowler on day three's play as his figures of 5-83 in 24.4 overs- his 14th five-wicket haul in Tests - ensured India got a narrow six-run lead after bowling out England for 465 in their first innings. Bumrah, who picked his third five-wicket haul in England, has also equalled the legendary Kapil Dev for the most fifers for India in away Tests (12). "I felt good in the first innings. Sometimes the downward slope helps and the wind was also decent, so that gives you a push. Sometimes when you see the dukes ball you can try to bowl banana swing and magic balls, but I was trying to focus on what worked for me," said Bumrah on Sky Sports' broadcast ahead of day four's play on Monday. Asked to dissect his dismissal of Zak Crawley in the presence of former India head coach Ravi Shastri, Bumrah explained, 'Pretty much, you want to hit the seam and you want to get some swing early on if you're bowling with the new ball. So that is what I was looking to do. It was cloudy weather at that time. 'Usually over here, the Duke ball sometimes never swings with the new ball. Slightly, when it gets a little older, it starts to do consistently. But the ball was swinging from the word go. So I was trying to bowl a nice length and tried to bring him forward, and it was a good execution on that day.' Further quizzed about the fingers he uses for making the ball swing and seam, Bumrah stated, "I'm slightly different - so I don't use my index finger. I use the big figure all the time. So I try to flick the ball. When I want to bowl an outswing, I flick it this way. When I want to bowl the inswing, I flick it inside because I can't usually change my arm path too much because of the way my bowling style is. "So I usually use my second finger for whichever swing I want to do because that's how I've always bowled. I've learned this over the years as well that I can't really change my arm path. Yes, I do change from where I want to bowl from the crease, but I try to flick it when I want to bowl it either way." Bumrah signed off by saying he was pleased with the rhythm he had while picking the five-wicket haul at Headingley. "The rhythm felt really good even in Beckenham, where we were practicing. Since I've come here after the IPL, the rhythm felt very good. So I was just trying to be in that zone and trying to take it to the game that I am not trying too much or not to get too aggressive."
