SRH vs MI Head-to-Head at Different Venues

The two teams have met at traditional home grounds as well as neutral venues.

Hyderabad has provided several memorable SRH victories. Mumbai, meanwhile, have also enjoyed success at the Wankhede Stadium, including their latest home meeting before the 2026 season.

Neutral venues have played an important role during seasons affected by scheduling changes. For example, the 2014 meeting between the sides was played in Dubai, while their 2016 encounter took place in Visakhapatnam. The 2020 season moved both teams to the UAE, with matches in Sharjah.

This means the SRH vs MI timeline is not restricted to Hyderabad and Mumbai; it also reflects some of the IPL’s most unusual seasons.

Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Mumbai Indians Timeline: Year-by-Year

SRH vs MI in 2013

The rivalry began during the 2013 IPL season, the first season in which Sunrisers Hyderabad competed after the Deccan Chargers era.

Their first meeting took place in Hyderabad on May 1, 2013. SRH defended a modest total of 130/3 after Mumbai Indians managed only 129/4. Hyderabad won by seven wickets.

The return fixture at Wankhede Stadium produced a very different result. SRH scored 178/3, with Shikhar Dhawan making 59, but Mumbai chased the target with three balls remaining. Kieron Pollard was the difference-maker, smashing an unbeaten 66 from only 27 balls. MI finished on 184/3 and won by seven wickets.

The first season therefore ended level at 1-1, immediately suggesting that this could become a competitive matchup.

SRH vs MI in 2014

The 2014 season again produced one victory for each team.

The first meeting was played at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. SRH posted 172/5 and defeated Mumbai Indians by 15 runs. The Hyderabad side’s bowling attack successfully protected its total.

The return match in Hyderabad went Mumbai’s way. SRH scored 157/3, but MI reached 160/3 in 18.4 overs to win by seven wickets.

Once again, the season series finished 1-1.

SRH vs MI in 2015

Mumbai Indians gained the upper hand in 2015 by winning both meetings.

The first match at Wankhede Stadium saw MI score 157/8 and defeat SRH by 20 runs. Mumbai’s bowlers controlled the chase and prevented Hyderabad from getting over the line.

The second match in Hyderabad was even more one-sided. SRH were bowled out for only 113 in 20 overs. Mitchell McClenaghan was outstanding with 3/16, and Mumbai completed the chase in only 13.5 overs for the loss of one wicket. McClenaghan was named Player of the Match.

The 2015 season marked the first time MI swept the season series against SRH.

SRH vs MI in 2016

The rivalry shifted dramatically in 2016.

SRH won both of their meetings against Mumbai Indians. In the first encounter at Hyderabad, Mumbai scored 142/6 before David Warner led the chase. SRH reached 145/3 in 17.3 overs, winning by seven wickets with 15 balls remaining. Warner scored 90 and was named Player of the Match.

The second meeting at Visakhapatnam was even more dominant. SRH posted 177/3 and then bowled Mumbai Indians out for just 92. Hyderabad won by 85 runs, one of the largest margins in this rivalry.

The 2016 season established SRH as a serious threat to Mumbai and helped create one of the most competitive phases of the rivalry.

SRH vs MI in 2017

The teams split their two matches again in 2017.

Mumbai Indians won the first meeting at Wankhede, while SRH responded strongly in Hyderabad.

The second match was particularly convincing from Hyderabad. SRH made 140/3 and restricted MI to 138/7, winning by seven wickets. The result meant the season series finished 1-1.

This period was notable because both sides possessed strong bowling attacks. Bhuvneshwar Kumar remained an important weapon for SRH, while Mumbai relied heavily on Jasprit Bumrah and its deep bowling unit.

SRH vs MI in 2018

The 2018 season became one of the most memorable chapters in the SRH vs MI timeline.

Hyderabad won both matches.

The first encounter in Hyderabad was a low-scoring thriller. SRH were eventually able to defend 151/9, with Mumbai finishing on 147/8. Hyderabad won by one wicket.

The return fixture at Wankhede was even more extraordinary. SRH were bowled out for 118, but their bowling attack completely dismantled Mumbai’s chase. MI were dismissed for only 87, giving Hyderabad a 31-run victory.

The result demonstrated that SRH could win matches through their bowling even when their own batting unit struggled.

SRH vs MI in 2019

The 2019 season produced two very different contests.

In the first meeting, Mumbai Indians defeated SRH by 40 runs. The match was a reminder of MI’s ability to control games through their bowling and middle-order experience.

The second meeting was one of the closest games in the rivalry’s history. The scores were tied, forcing the contest into a Super Over. Mumbai Indians eventually won the one-over eliminator.

That Super Over encounter became one of the defining close finishes in the SRH vs MI timeline.

SRH vs MI in 2020

The 2020 IPL season moved to the UAE, giving the rivalry another geographical twist.

Mumbai Indians won the first meeting in Sharjah by 34 runs after posting 208/5. SRH could only manage 174/7.

The return fixture was completely different. SRH produced a dominant ten-wicket victory after restricting Mumbai Indians to 149/8 and then chasing the target without losing a wicket.

The season therefore ended 1-1, continuing the recurring pattern of both teams exchanging victories.

SRH vs MI in 2021

Mumbai Indians won both meetings in 2021.

The first match was played in Chennai, where MI defeated SRH by 13 runs.

The second meeting took place in Abu Dhabi. Mumbai posted a huge 235/9 and defeated Hyderabad by 42 runs. The victory gave MI a clean sweep over SRH for the season.

This was another important period in which Mumbai’s bowling depth and experienced core gave them an advantage.

SRH vs MI in 2022

The 2022 season featured only one meeting between the teams, and it turned into a thriller.

SRH scored 193/6 at Wankhede Stadium. Rahul Tripathi played the central role, smashing 76 from 44 balls. Mumbai Indians responded with 190/7, falling only three runs short.

Umran Malik claimed three wickets for SRH, while the Mumbai chase received strong contributions from Rohit Sharma and Tim David. Rahul Tripathi was named Player of the Match.

The three-run victory remains one of the closest completed results in the SRH vs MI rivalry.

SRH vs MI in 2023

Mumbai Indians won both meetings in 2023.

The first match in Hyderabad saw MI score 192/5 and defeat SRH by 14 runs. Cameron Green played a major role with 64 from 40 balls.

The return fixture at Wankhede was much more aggressive. SRH scored 200/5, but Mumbai chased the target in only 18 overs, finishing on 201/2. MI won by eight wickets.

The two matches illustrated the changing nature of the IPL: totals above 190 were becoming increasingly common, and both teams had the batting firepower to chase demanding targets.

SRH vs MI in 2024

The 2024 rivalry produced one of the most famous matches in IPL history.

On March 27, SRH faced MI at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. Hyderabad exploded to 277/3 in 20 overs, setting a new IPL record for the highest team total at that point. Travis Head scored 62, Abhishek Sharma made 63 and Heinrich Klaasen remained unbeaten on 80 from 34 balls.

Mumbai Indians refused to surrender. Tilak Varma scored 64 from 34 balls and Tim David finished unbeaten on 42 from 22 balls. MI eventually reached 246/5. SRH won by 31 runs, but Mumbai’s 246 became the highest total in an IPL innings that ended in defeat at the time.

The match featured an extraordinary number of sixes and represented the modern high-scoring phase of the IPL.

However, Mumbai Indians gained revenge in the return fixture. MI defeated SRH by seven wickets in Mumbai, meaning the 2024 season series was split 1-1.

SRH vs MI in 2025

Mumbai Indians won both meetings in 2025.

The first match was played at Wankhede Stadium on April 17. SRH scored 162/5, but MI reached 166/6 in 18.1 overs to win by four wickets. Will Jacks contributed 36 and also took two wickets, earning Player of the Match.

The return fixture in Hyderabad produced another strong MI performance. SRH were restricted to 143/8 after losing five wickets for only 35 runs early in the innings. Heinrich Klaasen fought back with 71, but MI chased the target comfortably, reaching 146/3 in 15.4 overs. Rohit Sharma scored 70 from 46 balls, and MI won by seven wickets.

The 2025 season was therefore completely dominated by Mumbai.

SRH vs MI in 2026

The latest meeting came at Wankhede Stadium on April 29, 2026.

Mumbai Indians produced a massive 243/5, with Ryan Rickelton making an outstanding unbeaten 123 from 55 balls. Will Jacks added 46 from 22 balls.

Yet SRH chased the target with remarkable confidence. Hyderabad reached 249/4 in only 18.4 overs, winning by six wickets. Heinrich Klaasen was named Player of the Match after scoring 65 from 30 balls.

The result was significant because SRH defeated MI at Wankhede despite Mumbai posting 243 runs. It also meant that the latest chapter of the rivalry belonged to Hyderabad.

Most Memorable SRH vs MI Matches

Early IPL Encounters

The first match in 2013 remains important because it introduced SRH into a new IPL rivalry. Hyderabad restricted Mumbai to 129/4 and chased 130 with two overs remaining.

The return fixture was completely different. Kieron Pollard’s 66* from 27 balls powered MI to a seven-wicket victory after SRH had scored 178/3.

Closely Contested Matches

The 2022 meeting is one of the best examples. SRH posted 193/6 and Mumbai responded with 190/7. Just three runs separated the sides after 40 overs. Rahul Tripathi’s 76 from 44 balls earned him the Player of the Match award.

The 2019 Super Over encounter is another major example of how close this rivalry has been.

Record-Breaking Matches

The 2024 match stands above almost every other fixture in the timeline.

SRH’s 277/3 broke the previous IPL record for the highest team total. Mumbai then scored 246/5, making the match an extraordinary display of modern T20 batting.

High-Scoring Thriller

The 2026 Wankhede match is another recent classic.

MI reached 243/5 thanks to Ryan Rickelton’s 123*, but SRH successfully chased the target at 249/4. Heinrich Klaasen’s 65 from 30 balls helped Hyderabad complete the chase with eight balls remaining.

Most Recent Memorable Encounter

The 2026 meeting is particularly memorable because Mumbai’s huge total still was not enough.

Top Batting Performers in SRH vs MI Matches

The rivalry has featured some of the IPL’s most productive batters.

Rohit Sharma and David Warner have been particularly influential across the history of the matchup. According to compiled head-to-head statistics, Rohit Sharma has scored more than 500 runs against SRH, while Warner has also crossed the 500-run mark against Mumbai.

Recent seasons have added players such as Heinrich Klaasen, Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav and Ryan Rickelton to the list of major contributors.

Top SRH Batters Against MI

David Warner became one of the defining SRH players in this rivalry. His 90 in 2016 helped Hyderabad defeat Mumbai by seven wickets, and his aggressive approach repeatedly put pressure on MI’s bowlers.

Shikhar Dhawan was also important during the early years. He played a major role in the 2013 meeting and accumulated a substantial head-to-head record against Mumbai.

Heinrich Klaasen has become one of the most dangerous recent SRH batters against MI. His 80* in the 2024 record-breaking game and 65 in the 2026 chase demonstrate his ability to change matches rapidly.

Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma also played starring roles in the 2024 record-breaking match, scoring 62 and 63 respectively.

Top MI Batters Against SRH

Rohit Sharma has been one of Mumbai’s most consistent batters in this fixture.

Top Bowling Performers in SRH vs MI Matches

The rivalry has also been shaped by high-quality fast bowling and spin.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar has historically been one of SRH’s most successful bowlers against Mumbai. Compiled head-to-head statistics list him as the leading wicket-taker in the fixture, ahead of Jasprit Bumrah.

Best SRH Bowlers Against MI

Bhuvneshwar Kumar has repeatedly troubled Mumbai’s top order with swing, accuracy and variations at the death.

Rashid Khan added another dimension during the middle overs. His ability to attack right-handers and control the run rate made him a major part of SRH’s bowling strategy.

Umran Malik produced a memorable spell in the 2022 three-run victory, taking 3/23 as SRH successfully defended 193.

Best MI Bowlers Against SRH

Jasprit Bumrah has been one of Mumbai’s most important bowlers in the matchup. His ability to bowl during the powerplay and at the death has repeatedly given MI an opportunity to restrict Hyderabad.

Lasith Malinga also had several influential performances, particularly during the early years of the rivalry.

SRH vs MI Players Who Made the Rivalry Special

Rohit Sharma

Rohit Sharma has been one of Mumbai Indians’ most recognizable figures throughout the SRH vs MI timeline. His experience, captaincy and batting have made him an important part of many MI victories.

David Warner

Warner was central to SRH’s rise during the middle part of the rivalry. His aggressive opening batting repeatedly put Mumbai under pressure, including his 90 in the 2016 victory.

Jasprit Bumrah

Bumrah has been a key part of Mumbai’s bowling attack. His accuracy at the death and ability to take wickets without conceding many runs have made him one of MI’s most important weapons.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar

Bhuvneshwar’s record against Mumbai has been particularly impressive. His ability to swing the new ball and bowl disciplined spells made him one of SRH’s most dependable performers in this matchup.

Hardik Pandya

Hardik has featured on both sides of the rivalry’s tactical story through his batting, bowling and leadership. His all-round abilities have repeatedly influenced MI’s balance.

Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar’s ability to score around the ground has made him a dangerous middle-order batter against SRH. He has played several important innings during MI’s successful period.

Rashid Khan

Rashid became one of SRH’s most recognizable match-winners. His control through the middle overs was particularly important when Hyderabad defended moderate totals.

Travis Head

Head’s aggressive approach became a defining feature of the 2024 encounter. He scored 62 from 24 balls and gave SRH an explosive start in the record-breaking 277/3 innings.

Heinrich Klaasen

Klaasen has emerged as one of the most dangerous modern batters in this rivalry. His 80* from 34 balls in 2024 and 65 from 30 balls in 2026 underline his impact against MI.

SRH vs MI Timeline: Key Turning Points

The rivalry has experienced several important changes.

The 2013-15 period was relatively balanced but included strong Mumbai performances. MI won both matches in 2015, demonstrating the depth of their squad.

The 2016-18 period was particularly strong for SRH. Hyderabad won both matches in 2016 and both meetings in 2018, including an 85-run victory and an extraordinary 87-all-out collapse by Mumbai.

The 2019-21 period shifted back toward Mumbai. The 2019 Super Over victory and Mumbai’s two wins in 2021 showed MI’s ability to perform in pressure situations.

The 2022-24 period brought another competitive phase. SRH edged MI by three runs in 2022, while MI swept the 2023 meetings. The 2024 season was split, but the first match produced one of the greatest batting displays in IPL history.

The 2025 season belonged entirely to Mumbai, who won both meetings.

The 2026 chapter swung back toward SRH after Hyderabad chased 244 against MI at Wankhede.

Another major turning point has been the evolution of T20 batting. Earlier meetings often revolved around totals in the 130-170 range, whereas recent matches have regularly crossed 190 and occasionally gone beyond 240.

SRH vs MI Home and Away Record

Home advantage has mattered throughout the rivalry, although neither side has been unbeatable at its home ground.

SRH have produced several excellent performances in Hyderabad, particularly during their strong 2016-18 period. Mumbai have also won important games at Hyderabad, including the seven-wicket victory in 2024 and their seven-wicket victory in 2025.

At Wankhede, MI have traditionally been difficult to beat, but SRH have produced major upsets there. The latest example came in 2026 when Hyderabad chased 244 and won by six wickets.

Neutral venues have also played a role. Dubai, Visakhapatnam, Sharjah, Chennai and Abu Dhabi have all hosted meetings during different IPL seasons.

SRH vs MI Recent Form and Rivalry

Recent meetings show that Mumbai Indians have had the stronger overall run.

MI won both matches in 2025. In April, they defeated SRH by four wickets at Wankhede and then followed that with a seven-wicket victory in Hyderabad.

However, SRH responded in 2026 with one of their most impressive recent victories. Mumbai scored 243/5, but Hyderabad chased the target in 18.4 overs.

The recent trend is also heavily influenced by explosive batting. The 2024 match produced 523 combined runs, while the 2026 game produced 492 runs.

This suggests that the modern SRH vs MI rivalry is increasingly defined by aggressive batting, powerplay intent and high-risk run chases.

Mumbai Indians currently hold the overall advantage with 15 wins from 26 matches, while SRH have won 11. But the numbers do not fully capture how competitive the rivalry has been. Both teams have enjoyed periods of dominance, with SRH particularly strong between 2016 and 2018 and MI enjoying excellent runs in several later seasons.

The rivalry has also evolved from relatively modest IPL totals to extraordinary batting contests. SRH’s 277/3 against MI in 2024 remains the signature match, while MI’s 246/5 in the same game showed how quickly modern T20 cricket has changed.

The latest chapter gives Hyderabad plenty of momentum. In 2026, MI posted 243/5 at their home ground, only for SRH to chase the target in 18.4 overs and win by six wickets.

With explosive batters such as Heinrich Klaasen, Travis Head, Suryakumar Yadav and other modern T20 stars continuing to shape the matchup, the SRH vs MI match history is likely to gain plenty of new chapters in future IPL seasons.
