Former India player Aakash Chopra has said that SRH are in a spot of bother in IPL 2025 after losing three consecutive games. However, he added that the last season’s runners-up are unlikely to change in their aggressive batting approach. However, SRH will host the Gujarat Titans in Hyderabad on Sunday.

In a video shared on his YouTube channel ‘Aakash Chopra’, he said, “Hyderabad, what are you people doing? You have lost three matches on the bounce. A team can manage if they lose two matches, but if you lose three consecutive matches, you should realize that you are going down the drain, and it will be slightly difficult to come out of that. I didn’t think this kind of batting lineup would be in such a situation. I didn’t think Travishek (Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma), who were flying high, would crash-land.

He again shared, “The biggest question is whether Hyderabad will change their playing style. I don’t think they will change. To be fair, why should you change after collecting such a team? If you had to ask them to play easy, you should have bought someone else. When you bought such explosive batters, it won’t work out if you expect them to play cautiously.”

However, Aakash Chopra also urged the SRH to play two wrist spinners in their IPL 2025 clash against the Gujarat Titans as well.

“You are playing too much pace. You are thinking that it would work out only with pace. You will have to play some spin. You have three good leg spinners – Zeeshan Ansari, Adam Zampa and Rahul Chahar. Play at least two, and if you play them, bowl spin. The spinners bowled well in the last match and picked up two wickets as well, but you totally bowled only four overs of spin. I think you need to bowl a bit more spin, and, if possible, win the toss and bat first. You are unable to chase 200 runs,” Aakash Chopra concluded.
