Sunrisers Hyderabad have a chance to go atop IPL 2026 standings when they welcome Punjab Kings to Hyderabad on Wednesday.
Their five-match winning streak came to an end on the weekend as they suffered a seven-wicket loss to Kolkata Knight Riders. But SRH are just a point off the league leaders PBKS.
Meanwhile, after a unbeaten start of six games, PBKS are suddenly at risk of losing their top spot on the standings table after defeats against Rajasthan Royals and Gujarat Titans.
In the earlier meeting between the two sides this season, PBKS chased down 219 to defeat SRH by six wickets in a high-scoring contest.
