Adam Zampa for 2.40 cr was a steal buy for the team and they got a young and explosives spinner Zeeshan Ansari.
Retained players
SRH spent a lot of money to retained their 5 key players. The team management showed a lot of faith in these 5 players. Let’s take a look at these retained players.
- Heinrich klaasen 23 cr
- Pat Cummins 18 cr
- Travis Head 14 cr
- Abhishek Sharma 14 cr
- Nitish Kumar Ready 6 cr
So these wese the 5 players which are key to success for the SRH team. SRH spent 75 cr on 5 players and they went to mega auction with 45 cr.
But they had a very good openers, middle order, a finisher and a captain as well. Which is enough to make this side a good side.
Released players
SRH shows faith in 5 players and released all the remaining players. Let’s take a look at released players.
- Abdul Samad
- Aiden Markram
- Rahul Tripathi
- Glenn Philips
- Mayank Agarwal
- Anmolpreet Singh
- Upendra Singh yadav
- Marco jansen
- Wanindu Hasaranga
- Washington Sundar
- Shahbaz Ahmed
- Bhuvneshwar Kumar
- Sanvir Singh
- Akash Singh
- Fazalhaq Farooqi
- Jaydev Unadkat
- T Natarajan
- Umran Malik
- Mayank Markande
- Jhathavedh Subramanyan
- Vijayakanth
It was quite shocking that SRH released Bhuvneshwar Kumar because he was the highest wicket taker for SRH and also won 2 purple cap in two consecutive season.
They also released Wanindu Hasaranga as they were struggling in the spin department as they also don’t have fully trust on Mayank markande.
Jaydev Unadkat is the only player which makes his place in the squad again after the auction.
Probable playing 11 of SRH for IPL 2025
SRH has built a good squad, they have explosive openers and finishers. Is SRH a balanced side ? let’s see SRH’s strongest playing 11.
S.NO | Player Name | Role |
1 | Abhishek Sharma | Batting All-rounder |
2 | Travis Head | Batsman |
3 | Ishan Kishan | Batsman |
4 | Heinrich klaasen (wk) | Batsman |
5 | Nitish Kumar Ready | Batting All-rounder |
6 | Abhinav Manohar | Batsman |
7 | Pat Cummins (c) | Bowling All-rounder |
8 | Harshal Patel | Bowler |
9 | Rahul Chahar | Bowler |
10 | Mohammad Shami | Bowler |
11 | Adam Zampa | Bowler |
12 | Sachin Baby / Aniket Varma / zeeshan Ansari / Jaydev Unadkat | Impact player |
SRH playing 11 looks really good but there is one minus point in this playing 11 that they don’t have a no.7 batsman as pat Cummins is there no.7 batsman. Also impact player rule is available but they don’t have experienced players for this position to handle the pressure. And hit sixes as easiest.
They have to find a good no.7 batsman who can finish the innings and can play a vital role in the bowling too. So this is the shortcoming that I am thinking.
Although, they have a good pair of batting explosive batting line up but it becomes more effective with the arrival of Ishan Kishan.

Mohammed Shami (2023) and Harshal Patel ( 2021, 2024) are both Purple Cap winners and both of them have a lot of experience of how to win matches for thier team.
Sunrisers Hyderabad has a very experienced bowler in the form of Jaydev Unadkat who has been bowling in the IPL for a long time.
Eshan Malinga can prove to be the x factor for Sunrisers Hyderabad because his bowling action is very unique and he is very young who can create a good impact in bowling for SRH.

Rahul Chahar has also been a very good wicket taker in IPL and he will perform very well for the team too
Zeeshan Ansari and Abhishek Sharma will play a very good role to support Adam Zampa and Rahul Chahar.
