Match Preview

The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 is getting exciting as Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) get ready to take on Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in Match 65 on May 23 at 7:30 PM IST. The match was supposed to be held at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, but due to continuous heavy rain making the ground unfit for play, it has been moved to the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow.

RCB has 17 points from 12 games and is already in the playoffs. Winning this match could help them finish in the top two and go straight to Qualifier 1. SRH has had an up-and-down season, with some great moments but not enough consistency. They want to end strong and maybe change the playoff race.

Pitch Condition

The Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow is known for offering a balanced surface, but it often leans slightly in favor of bowlers, especially spinners.
