Punjab Kings are the team in form. Sunrisers Hyderabad, not so much. Does it mean that PBKS, with two wins and a No Result, starts as the heavy favourite against SRH — it has one victory in three games — when the two sides clash in an IPL match at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Stadium in Chandigarh on Saturday (April 11, 2026)? Not really.

A glance at the scorecard of their last meeting — in Hyderabad on April 12, 2025 — provides context. Sunrisers, coming off a four-match losing streak, hunted down the 246-run target with eight wickets and nine balls to spare, thanks to a 55-ball 141 from Abhishek Sharma.
