Breaking their losing streak in the IPL 2025 season, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) rewarded themselves with a well-deserved vacation to the Maldives, aiming to boost morale and rejuvenate the team. On April 25, SRH triumphed over Chennai Super Kings with a commanding five-wicket victory.

To celebrate the players' perseverance and dedication during the season, Sunrisers Hyderabad organized a luxurious retreat in the tropical haven ahead of their next IPL 2025 clash against the Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium on May 2.
