IPL 2024: Punjab Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad look to break out of mid-table logjam
Both the teams are coming into the match after a win, and as such promises to be an exciting match on the cards.
Indian Premier League last season’s finalist SunRisers Hyderabad has announced the list of retained players on Thursday. SRH has retained the services of their former captain David Warner, who missed the last season in the wake of the ball-tampering scandal that rocked Cricket Australia.
The Hyderabad-based outfit has also let go of eight players from their last year’s squad including Wriddhiman Saha, Windies’ T20 captain Carlos Brathwaite. England’s top order batsman Alex Hales, who was included in SunRisers squad as replacement of Warner, has been released by the team.
