IPL 2026 SRH vs LSG Pitch Report: How Hyderabad’s weather could impact today’s clash at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: What to expect

Sunrisers Hyderabad will aim to begin their home leg on a winning note when they face Lucknow Super Giants on Sunday.

SRH have had a mixed start to their campaign, losing their opening match against RCB but bouncing back with a win over Kolkata Knight Riders at Eden Gardens.

LSG Still Searching for First Win


Led by Rishabh Pant, Lucknow Super Giants are yet to open their account this season. They suffered a defeat in their first match against Delhi Capitals at their home ground in Lucknow and will be eager to turn things around.

Pitch Report

The surface at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium is likely to provide some assistance to fast bowlers early in the innings. However, as the match progresses, batting conditions generally improve.

With a quick outfield and relatively shorter boundaries, stroke play is expected to dominate once batters settle in. Another high-scoring contest could be on the cards, with teams chasing potentially targeting totals in the 220–230 range.

Weather Update

Weather conditions in Hyderabad are expected to remain clear throughout the match. The temperature is likely to hover around 34°C, with humidity levels near 24 percent. Overall, conditions will be hot but favourable, with no rain interruptions expected.
