The 55th match of the ongoing Indian Premier League is set to be a high-stakes encounter between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Delhi Capitals on Monday in Hyderabad. For Delhi Capitals, this match is a must-win to keep their playoff hopes alive, while a loss could see SRH eliminated from contention.

SRH have had a challenging season, winning only three of their last ten matches. With the failure of their top-order batters, such as Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma and Ishan Kishan, the team has struggled to maintain consistent performances. SRH now find themselves in a precarious position, with a loss in this match potentially knocking them out of the tournament.

On the other hand, Delhi Capitals have been inconsistent, but with key players like Abhishek Porel, Faf du Plessis and KL Rahul in their ranks, they have the potential to turn their fortunes around. Overall, this will be a do-or-die encounter, as their disappointing form has left them on the edge of the playoff race.
