David Warner will return to join the Sunrisers for the upcoming edition of the IPL. It will be interesting to see if he’s able to take over the captaincy from Kane Williamson who has led them incredibly well. Warner’s arrival will also strengthen their batting line-up. Sunrisers Hyderabad have the most balanced squad on paper, and their bowling attack is probably the best in the tournament. If this team play to their potential, they can surely lift their second IPL title this year.

Sunrisers Hyderabad retained all their quality players in last year’s auction. They traded Shikhar Dhawan to Delhi Capitals for Vijay Shankar, Shahbaz Nadeem and Abhishek Sharma. The Sunrisers also bought some prized possessions in the form of Martin Guptill (1 crore) and Jonny Bairstow (2.2 crores).
