SRH vs CSK Toss, IPL 2026: Will the coin flip favour Ishan Kishan's Sunrisers in Hyderabad vs Chennai today? (CREIMAS)
Sunrisers Hyderabad and Chennai Super Kings will go up against on another with a battle move out from the bottom half o the IPL 2026 standings.
On a high-scoring deck, the toss will be crucial for the visiting side who has had a poor record in recent years at the venue.
Toss: Chennai Super Kings win toss, opt to bowl first
Here’s how the Toss played its part in 2025 for the Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Uppal Stadium
Sunrisers played six times last season in Hyderabad and had a dismal record, winning just one of those matches. Moreover, they never won the toss even once. Their inability to cash in on tbeir home matches was a big reason as to why they fell so far off the pace in the race for the playoffs.
That helped them blaze their way to a score of 286/6 and it had looked like they would continue from where they left off previous season. Instead, it turned out to be a false dawn.
Tosses won at home: 0; Matches won at home: 1
CSK were among the poorest travelling teams last season even as the coin flip favoured them in four of the eight matches. While they won two of the four games where they had away from home, CSK eventually finished at the bottom of the standings in the season.
Tosses won away from home: 4/8
Matches Won after Toss win away: 2/4; Batting 1st: 1/1; Batting 2nd: 1/3
