Expert Note:
Hyderabad hasn’t been a happy hunting ground for Iyer so far. But given his current form in IPL 2025 and leadership role, today’s match could be a turning point for his personal record at this venue

- Challenge: He needs to improve his strike rate and play a big knock to help PBKS dominate against SRH’s bowling unit.
- Watch Out: If Iyer settles in, expect him to target the spinners and guide the chase or set a platform for a big total.
