Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Rajasthan Royals<\/a> (RR) are set to reignite their rivalry as they clash in their opening match of the Indian Premier League<\/a> (IPL) 2025 season on Sunday at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. The two teams have faced off 20 times in the IPL, with SRH holding a slight advantage, having won 11 matches compared to RR\u2019s 9 victories.
The history between these two teams has always promised fierce competition, often featuring thrilling performances from star players. RR, the inaugural IPL champions in 2008, have reached the final only once since their maiden triumph, finishing as runners-up in 2022.

In contrast, SRH, who joined the league in 2013, clinched their first and only title in 2016 and have played two more finals since then. Both teams had strong campaigns in 2024, with SRH finishing as runners-up after losing to Kolkata Knight Riders in the final, while RR secured third place, losing to SRH in Qualifier 2.
In their most recent encounters last season, SRH emerged victorious in both matches against RR. The first win came in a nail-biting league game, where SRH edged out RR by just one run. The second clash, in Qualifier 2, saw SRH cruising to a 36-run victory, cementing their place in the final. With this recent dominance, SRH will enter the contest with a psychological advantage. <\/p>\n
