New Delhi, India
Under newly-appointed captain Pat Cummins, the SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) franchise will hope for a turnaround following the previous season, where they finished last on the points table. Playing their season-opener against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in an away clash on Saturday (March 23), SRH will walk out an experienced overseas contingent, including Travis Head, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen and Glenn Phillips. The 2016 IPL winner has nothing to lose but only to gain in the 17th edition of the Indian Premier League.
SRH's balance is what will keep them ahead of their contemporaries, having better Indian top-order players in their lineup in comparison to most teams. In their bowling department, SRH has enough firepower to keep every opponent silent on their day.
