Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) are aiming to finish the league stage of IPL 2026 on a strong note when they host Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on May 22. The Pat Cummins-led side is still chasing a confirmed playoff spot, making the fixture crucial on the field. Off the field, however, the buzz is equally intense—driven by Virat Kohli’s presence and soaring demand for tickets.
With anticipation sky-high for what is SRH’s final league match of the season, ticket prices have witnessed a sharp hike. Tickets went live on May 15 at 5 PM IST via Zomato District, where the waiting list reportedly touched 2.60 lakh users. Despite the huge demand, tickets sold out within minutes—but fans were quick to notice the revised pricing structure.
The cheapest ticket category, previously priced at ₹950, has now doubled to ₹2,000. Several mid-range and premium categories have also seen steep increases, with corporate boxes and high-demand sections witnessing significant upward revisions.
