Sunrisers Hyderabad felt that the perfect escape was for the team to relax and rejuvenate physically and mentally before they headed into the next phase of the ongoing IPL 2025.
But the decision of the Hyderabad team to take a vacation mid-tier tournament has raised many eyebrows, especially given their campaign has become so far.
Meanwhile, Sunrisers Hyderabad has only been able to win three games from nine outings in the ongoing IPL 2025 so far. If you want to participate in the playoffs, you will need to win all the remaining games in the tournament. All future games will be played for Hyderabad. Because a single loss could end IPL 2025 playoff hopes.
