SRH retain Kane Williamson as captain ahead of the IPL 2022 auction

IPL 2021 was a forgettable outing for the Sunrisers Hyderabad, as they finished at the bottom of the table with just three wins. There were issues within the camp as well with David Warner removed as captain and dropped from the side halfway through the season.

SRH have also released ace spinner Rashid Khan ahead of the new season. Rashid has joined the new franchise Gujarat Titans, whose name was officially announced earlier today.

The Sunrisers, however, retained Kane Williamson as their captain ahead of the new season. Uncapped fast-bowler Umran Malik and uncapped middle-order batter Abdul Samad were the other players the 2016 champions retained.

With a new think tank that includes Brian Lara and Dale Steyn, head coach Tom Moody will be keen to build a balanced outfit at the auction.
