SRH Probable Playing XI
Talking about the most dangerous and Highest opening partnership in IPL 2025, it can be of Sunrisers Hyderabad. Their team will have Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head. Both these players have been retained by the Orange Army. The pair of Abhishek and Head created a stir last year, after which they can be seen in the same avatar once again.
Sunrisers Hyderabad team has dangerous batsmen in the middle order. They also have retained players like Heinrich Klaasen and Nitish Kumar Reddy.
Australian opener Travis Head is known for his explosive batting from the beginning and he did the same in IPL 2024 as well. Head, along with Abhishek Sharma, gave Sunrisers Hyderabad a stormy start in many matches. Once again, he will have the responsibility of wreaking havoc in the powerplay itself, so that the task becomes easier for the batsmen coming later.
Sunrisers Hyderabad can show confidence in Australian spinner Adam Zampa in the spin department in their starting playing 11. Zampa can do well in white ball cricket but he has got few consistent opportunities in the IPL. He has consistently done well for Australia at the international level. In such a situation, the Hyderabad team can give him a chance in the beginning.
SRH’s strong playing 11 for IPL 2025 could be like this
Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Sarfaraz Khan, Heinrich Klaasen, Nitish Reddy, Ashutosh Sharma, Washington Sundar, Pat Cummins (captain), T Natarajan, Avesh Khan, Noor Ahmed
