Earlier reports had indicated that the stadium’s power supply was disconnected due to the board’s outstanding dues, exceeding Rs 3 crores. Despite the board’s plea to waive off a portion of the surcharge amounting to 1.6 crores, the electricity department stood firm on their decision.

 

This forthcoming fixture holds significant importance for both teams as they seek to regain momentum. Pat Cummins’ Sunrisers Hyderabad has secured only one victory in their three matches, notably achieving a record-breaking T20 innings score of 277 runs against the Mumbai Indians.
