<p>David Warner joined the Sunrisers Hyderabad franchise in 2014. Soon, he became a regular in the line-up and led the side to their solitary title in the 2016 edition. Warner remained the face of the franchise ever since but an ordinary season in the IPL 2021 edition, where he also had some issues with the team management, took things downhill and the swashbuckling left-hander hasn't been retained by the SRH franchise.</p>

<p>All the eight existing IPL franchises shared their list of retained players on Tuesday evening (November 30). SRH have retained only three players, such as captain Kane Williamson, Abdul Samad and pacer Umran Malik. Hence, along with Warner, the Hyderabad franchise also released the likes of Rashid Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar&nbsp;and Jonny Bairstow.</p>

David Warner joined the Sunrisers Hyderabad franchise in 2014. Soon, he became a regular in the line-up and led the side to their solitary title in the 2016 edition. Warner remained the face of the franchise ever since but an ordinary season in the IPL 2021 edition, where he also had some issues with the team management, took things downhill and the swashbuckling left-hander hasn't been retained by the SRH franchise. All the eight existing IPL franchises shared their list of retained players on Tuesday evening (November 30). SRH have retained only three players, such as captain Kane Williamson, Abdul Samad and pacer Umran Malik. Hence, along with Warner, the Hyderabad franchise also released the likes of Rashid Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jonny Bairstow.

In addition, he crossed the 500-run mark for six consecutive seasons. Meanwhile, Afghan spinner Rashid also thanked the franchise and termed them his 'pillars of strength'. "It has been a wonderful journey with the @sunrisershyd. Thank you for your support, love and for believing in me.

'Chapter closed!' - David Warner shares heartfelt post for SRH fans after being released ahead of mega auction

<p>Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) have reportedly decided to retain only skipper Kane Williamson ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) mega auction for the 2022 season. While the franchise were also in talks with star spinner Rashid Khan to retain him, it remains to be seen if the Afghanistan ace will stay with SRH for the next season.</p>

<p>All eight existing IPL teams are set to reveal their final list of retained players on Tuesday (November 30). Ahead of making their retentions official, SRH took to Instagram to thank their players for their contributions over the years. SRH also stated that it was not a goodbye from the franchise side as they would like to buy back some of the players again during the auction.</p>

<p>England batter Jonny Bairstow is among the players to be released by SRH ahead of the mega auction. Bairstow himself confirmed the end of his association with the Orange Army as he reacted to SRH's farewell post for their players and wrote - “Thank you all for your support! Hopefully, at some point our paths cross again in the future,”&nbsp;</p>

<p>Bairstow made his IPL debut for SRH in the 2019 season and formed a formidable opening partnership at the top with David Warner, who is also set to be released by the franchsie after enduring a disappointing campaign in IPL 2020. Bairstow was one of the most consistent batters for SRH since joining the side with 1038 runs from 28 matches at an average of over 41.</p>

<p>He will be in demand at the upcoming IPL mega auction as a lot of franchises will be looking for good opening batters. Bairstow is a white-ball regular for England and is known for his swashbuckling style of batting. He can be a a great addition to a number of teams in the league.</p>

<p>SRH will be hoping to build a strong squad from scratch this time around with Williamson as full-time captain.</p>

All eight teams can retain a maximum of only four players while the two new teams - Ahmedabad and Lucknow franchises will be allowed to pick three players each from the list of non-retained players.</p>

<p>Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will not have Virat Kohli leading the side from IPL 2022 and will also miss the services of AB de Villiers, who has already retired from all forms of cricket. However, RCB are all set to retain Kohli as a pure batter along with Glenn Maxwell, as per a report in <em>NDTV.</em></p>

<p>While Kohli is likely to be the first-choice retention having spent his entire IPL career with RCB so far, Maxwell is all set to be the second player to be retained by RCB after being roped in last year. RCB might also look at retaining pacer Harshal Patel and opening batter Devdutt Padikkal.</p>

<p>With Rahul not in the fray, Punjab Kings face a huge dilemma as some of the members of the team management reportedly feel none of Mayank Agarwal or Ravi Bishnoi is worth the money they would have to shell out to keep them.

A look at players RCB, Punjab Kings, Rajasthan Royals and SRH might retain ahead of IPL mega auction

<p>Australia batter David Warner endured a woeful campaign with Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 resulting in a fallout between the two. Warner was first sacked from captaincy midway through the IPL 2021 season before being dropped from the playing XI. The fallout all but confirmed that SRH is looking beyond the Aussie opener and might release him ahead of the mega auction.</p>

<p>After a dreadful IPL campaign, Warne went on to have a memorable outing in the T20 World Cup 2021 where he ended up bagging the Player of the Tournament award for his 289 runs in seven matches for Australia. Warner scripted a fairytale redemption and played an instrumental role in helping Australia win their maiden T20 World Cup title in the UAE.</p>

<p>While there has been no official confirmation whether Warner will be retained by SRH or not, the Australian batter has himself clearly hinted at the end of his association with the franchise. He came up with a blunt reply to a fan on Instagram, who said Warner should return to SRH and lead the franchise once again in IPL 2022.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The fan mentioned the prospect of Tom Moody coaching SRH and Warner leading the side on one of the fan pages of the franchise, "No thanks", Warner wrote replying to the comment from the fan.</p>

<p>Warner has hinted that he is looking forward to leaving SRH ahead of the mega auction and might enter the auction pool. The Australian batter might also get picked by one of the two new franchises - Lucknow and Ahmedabad, who are both looking for captains and will be allowed to pick three players each from the pool of non-retained players.</p>

David Warner comes up with blunt response after fan says he should lead Sunrisers Hyderabad again

<p>Redemption is not easy, but not if you are David Warner. A force to reckon with in T20 cricket, the Australian southpaw has proved time and again he is one of the best the format has ever seen. No stranger to adversities, Warner faced yet another one this year and came out of it all guns blazing to turn things around in a matter of days.</p>

<p>Let's go back a few weeks, it's the start of Sunrisers Hyderabad's campaign in the second leg of IPL 2021. The margin of error is nil as Kane Williamson &amp; Co. need to win at least six of the remaining seven matches to stand a chance at qualifying for the playoffs. They open their campaign against Delhi Capitals with David Warner opening the batting.</p>

<p>Three balls into the game and Warner is gone for a duck at the Dubai Stadium. Disappointed but not shattered, Warner heads back to the dressing room without the slightest of ideas that he is all set to endure the worst phase of his IPL career. Sacked as captain earlier in the season, Warner is dropped from the playing XI for the remainder of the season.</p>

<p>Warner was left hung out to dry as the franchise that he had always given his 200% to made it all but obvious that they were looking beyond him. The treatment dished out to their only title-winning captain&nbsp;appeared unfair to many and could have shaken the confidence of even the best of cricketers around.</p>

<p>But, not David Warner. He had seen tougher times in the past and had come out triumphant each time he was buried down the ground. Another redemption tale was in the making and Warner had a shot at it just days after the conclusion of what was his worst ever IPL as he donned the Aussie jersey in the T20 World Cup 2021.</p>

<p>On November 14, Warner stood with the Player of the Tournament in his hands at the same Dubai Stadium where he had been dismissed on a duck weeks ago and had been dumped&nbsp;out of his beloved IPL side without being given an explanation after playing what seemed to be his last game for Sunrisers Hyderabad. Warner was elated but he always knew his chance would come and that he had to make the most of it.</p>

<p>Warner admitted he 'trained the hardest' and didn't miss even a single batting session in the nets during the T20 World Cup as he went on to script a redemption tale from ages.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The same stands in the UAE from where he once cheered for SRH after being deemed not deserving to make it to their playing XI, became his dumping ground for sixes as life came full circle for the Australian opener, who strongly believes sport is a great leveller and there will always be a second chance if you work the hardest.</p>

<p><img alt="David Warner" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="300d1f74-23fb-4766-ba57-d5ccdc104583" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Warner%20Smith.png" /></p>

<p>289 runs in seven matches including a match-winning half-century in the final meant, Warner not only powered Australia to their maiden T20 World Cup crown but ensured he had responded to his critics and did it in style. Unfortunately for Warner, not many of those critics were outside the SRH dressing room but with a smile on his face and the willow in his hand, he had answered them all.</p>

<p>Australian captain Aaron Finch didn't mince his words when he was flooded with questions about what had been an incredible comeback from Warner. Finch never once doubted that Warner's IPL woes would hamper his performances in the T20 World Cup, considering the pedigree of the southpaw, who has over the years established himself as one of the most prolific run-getters in the shortest format.</p>

<p>Finch, who had an eye of a captain, told reporters he had himself called head coach Justin Langer days ahead of the start of the T20 World Cup to tell him not to worry about Warner. Finch said he knew Warner will have a tournament to remember and what transpired in UAE was nothing short of extraordinary as his trust in his teammate paid huge dividends.</p>

<p>"Without a word of a lie, I promise you, I called Justin Langer a few months ago and said, 'Don't worry about Davey, he'll be Man of the Tournament'," Finch had said. The Australian skipper rightly put it when he said calling Warner out of form was like 'poking a bear'.</p>

<p>From not being able to get into an IPL playing XI, Warner stood with the Player of the Tournament award and a T20 World Cup trophy in a matter of just days.</p>

<p><img alt="Australia" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="21ae2876-080b-4afa-aa4d-f396822f4106" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/000_9RN2NN%20%281%29.jpg" /></p>

<p>But it wasn't the usual Warner that everyone associates with who turned up in UAE, it was a&nbsp;different side of the superstar batter on display, as he headed into the T20 World Cup with a completely different approach and took it upon him to do the majority of the run-scoring.</p>

<p>Shifting gears when needed and playing out overs from dangerous bowlers, Warner showed incredible maturity, remarkable intent and went about his business like he was coming off one of those dashing IPL campaigns that he is usually known for. He finished as Australia's top scorer in the tournament and was awarded the highest individual honour in what was poetic justice for the Aussie star.</p>

<p>A treatment like the one meted out to Warner by his IPL team could have proven disastrous for even the toughest of characters ahead of an important World Cup but it was just another learning experience for the 35-year-old, who created no fuss and waited for his shot at redemption while respecting his franchise throughout a painful journey on the sidelines.</p>

<p>Warner's redemption tale proves that sport is a great leveller and that fairytales do exist for those who fight for them.<br />

David Warner's redemption tale is one for the ages

<p>One of the most successful overseas players in the Indian Premier League (IPL), David Warner has broken his silence on the events that transpired after he was sacked from Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) captaincy and dropped from its playing XI. SRH had a disappointing season in the IPL 2021, winning only three games and ending at the bottom of the points table.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Warner led SRH to their first IPL trophy in 2016 and went on to win three Orange Caps with them in 2015, 2017 and 2019. Despite such outstanding performance, Warner was removed as SRH captain in the first half of the IPL 2021, and Kane Williamson took his place. In the second half, Warner appeared in only two games before being pulled from the XI.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Now, Warner has regained form at the recently concluded T20 World Cup that Australia won after defeating New Zealand in the summit clash. The swashbuckling batter was named Player of the Tournament after a prolific form, has now opened up on the way he was treated at SRH.&nbsp;</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">"When you are dropped from the team you have loved the most for years without any real fault of yours and stripped of captaincy without being given a reason, it hurts. At the same time there are no complaints. The fans in India have always been there for me and it is for them that you play. We play to entertain. We play to push for excellence," Warner said in an interview with The Economic Times.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Former Australia wicketkeeper and SRH assistant coach Brad Haddin lately disclosed the cause&nbsp;for dropping Warner from Playing XI, claiming it had nothing to do with the batter's lack of form. However, Warner's training and lack of match practice&nbsp;were a source of concern. Australian opener clarified&nbsp;in the interview that he never gave anything less than his hundred percent.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">"Whatever may have been the reason for me not finding a spot in an IPL team, I can tell you I was training the hardest I ever did. I didn’t not miss a single day. I was batting extremely well in the nets and it was only a matter of time before it all started to work out. So yes, while it hurt, I knew I will have another opportunity," Warner further said.</p>

Warner led SRH to their first IPL trophy in 2016 and went on to win three Orange Caps with them in 2015, 2017 and 2019. Despite such outstanding performance, Warner was removed as SRH captain in the first half of the IPL 2021, and Kane Williamson took his place. In the second half, Warner appeared in only two games before being pulled from the XI. Now, Warner has regained form at the recently concluded T20 World Cup that Australia won after defeating New Zealand in the summit clash. The swashbuckling batter was named Player of the Tournament after a prolific form, has now opened up on the way he was treated at SRH.

At the same time there are no complaints. The fans in India have always been there for me and it is for them that you play. We play to entertain. We play to push for excellence," Warner said in an interview with The Economic Times. Former Australia wicketkeeper and SRH assistant coach Brad Haddin lately disclosed the cause for dropping Warner from Playing XI, claiming it had nothing to do with the batter's lack of form. However, Warner's training and lack of match practice were a source of concern. Australian opener clarified in the interview that he never gave anything less than his hundred percent. "Whatever may have been the reason for me not finding a spot in an IPL team, I can tell you I was training the hardest I ever did. I didn’t not miss a single day. I was batting extremely well in the nets and it was only a matter of time before it all started to work out. So yes, while it hurt, I knew I will have another opportunity," Warner further said.

The Australia opener has suggested that he may play for a different club in the 2018 IPL season, but the SRH administration is still yet to publicly announce his departure.

T20 World Cup star David Warner says he was 'hurt' when Sunrisers Hyderabad dropped him during IPL 2021

<p>Sunrisers Hyderabad assistant coach Brad Haddin has admitted that the decision to drop Australian opener David Warner from the team's playing XI midway through the IPL 2021 season had nothing to do with cricket.</p>

<p>Warner, who guided SRH to their lone IPL triumph in 2016, was left out of the team's playing XI for the second leg of the IPL 2021 in the UAE. However, he played an instrumental role in&nbsp;Australia's maiden&nbsp;T20 World Cup victory as&nbsp;the aggressive opener turned things around and was named Player of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2021 after hitting 289 runs in the tournament.</p>

<p>"I tell you what, it was not a cricket decision that he was not playing for SunRisers Hyderabad. I think the one thing you have to realise about David is that he was not out of form, he was out of match practice. They had a long break. He did not go to Bangladesh or the West Indies. But he turned up in a really good headspace. He was hitting the ball well, circumstances were out of our control, even the coaching staff," Haddin said on the Grade Cricketers Podcast.<br />
<br />
"But it was not because he was out of form. All he needed was some match time. He hit the ball well. He just needed to spend some time in the middle to get at the rhythm again. As the tournament went on, you saw his class. He got a bit of rhythm back into his game and he was good to watch," he added.</p>

Dropping David Warner from SRH playing XI was not a cricket decision, says assistant coach Brad Haddin

<p>David Warner had a torrid time in IPL 2021 edition. However, the swashbuckling left-hander has turned it out in the just-concluded T20 World Cup 2021 edition, returning as the top-scorer for eventual champions Aaron Finch-led Australia. As the Sunrisers Hyderabad's former captain Warner had already shared his intention to put his name in the auction pool for IPL 2022, former Aussie spin wizard Brad Hogg has predicted his next IPL franchise.</p>

<p>So far, Warner has represented the likes of Delhi Daredevils (DD) -- now known as Delhi Capitals (DC) -- and was part of the SRH camp from 2014-21 edition. Hogg believes Warner will be best suited to the Virat Kohli-starrer Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) franchise.</p>

<p>"I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up at RCB because that kind of wicket will suit him at Bangalore and they need a leader. The RCB might get him in because of his captaincy record as Kohli has relinquished his post," Hogg said on his YouTube channel.</p>

<p>As far as the chances of Warner heading back to SRH are concerned, Hogg doesn't see that happening. "I don't think Warner will play for SRH anymore. I think there is bit of a relationship problem between the franchise management and David Warner," the former chinaman bowler noted.</p>

<p>It will be interesting to see which franchise will become Warner's next IPL team. If he enters the auction pool, the Aussie opener will surely be one of the most expensive buys given his overall stature in IPL. He has amassed 5,449 runs in 150 IPL games at 41.59 with 4 hundreds.&nbsp;</p>

Former Aussie spin wizard predicts next IPL franchise for David Warner post his T20 WC blitz

<p>David Warner had a torrid time in the IPL 2021 edition, for the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) franchise. The swashbuckling left-hander didn't start off nicely with the bat in the first leg and SRH's back-to-back defeats didn't help the then captain's cause. His poor strike-rate along with his post-match presentations on Manish Pandey's omissions reportedly caused a rift between him and the team management. As a result, he was sacked as SRH captain before the final leg.</p>

<p>In the second leg, in UAE, Warner got a chance to play in the first two games for SRH but his low returns led to his ouster. In addition, he wasn't even asked to accompany the team on the ground. While he did return at the stands, he remained out of contention for Hyderabad, who ended at the bottom in IPL 14 points table. Thus, he all but confirmed his exit from the one-time winners' camp as this year's IPL neared its conclusion.</p>

'Won’t be retained by SRH' - David Warner looking for 'fresh start', to put his name in IPL 2022 auction

<p>David Warner had a torrid and forgettable run in IPL 2021. The Aussie opener started once again as the Sunrisers Hyderabad's (SRH) captain, but back-to-back losses and his indifferent form led to his sacking during the first leg in India, early this year. When the second and final leg commenced in the UAE, by then Warner had lost the faith of the SRH team management.</p>

<p>While he played the first two games of the Hyderabad franchise, his low-returns with the bat led to his ouster. Moreover, he was not even seen in the SRH dugout for a few games; raising eyebrows among the ardent SRH fans. While Warner finally returned to the stands, during SRH's face-off versus Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), he wasn't included in a video shared by the franchise -- featuring all their players -- after they ended&nbsp;IPL 14 at the bottom.</p>

'NoWarnerNoSRH' trends on Twitter as fans back David Warner, demand his retention ahead of IPL 2022

<p>David Warner has finally broken his silence on his fall from grace at the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021.

<p>Warner was sacked as the captain of the side after SRH managed only a solitary win in their first six matches in IPL 2021. He was replaced by Kane Williamson, however, the move didn't change SRH fortunes as their woeful season continued under the Kiwi batsman.&nbsp;</p>

<p>SRH became the first team to be eliminated from the race for the playoffs and finished at the bottom of the table with just three wins from 14 matches this season.

<p>The Australian star said it was a tough pill to swallow to not being explained why he was sacked from captaincy and that he thought what he has achieved for the franchise in the IPL over the years would be taken into account when such treatment was being rendered out to him.</p>

<p>&nbsp;“I am not 100 per cent sure how to answer that. With the utmost respect for the owners, Trevor Baylis, Laxman, Moody and Murali, when a decision gets made, it has to be a unanimous one. You don't know who the person is going for you and who isn't,"&nbsp;Warner said on <em>Sports Today,&nbsp;</em>when asked about what went wrong for him at the franchise this season.</p>

<p>However, Warner insisted there are some questions that he would never get answers for and it was in the best interest of all parties to move on. Warner scored 195 runs in eight matches that he played for SRH this season as the franchise failed to make it to the playoffs.</p>

<p>“Especially when you have played about 100 games for the franchise, I think I had four bad games in those first five matches in Chennai. It is difficult, a tough pill to swallow. There are still questions to which I think I'll never get answers, but you have to move on,” he added.</p>

David Warner breaks silence on fall from grace at SRH: Was not explained why I was dropped as captain

<p>Former Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) captain David Warner has hinted at his exit from the franchise after the team's ouster from the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021. SRH endured a disastrous season in IPL 2021 as they failed to make it to the playoffs, managing only three wins in 14 matches this season.</p>

<p>Warner too had a season to forget as he was sacked from captaincy before being dropped from the playing XI. The star Australian batsman started the season as the captain of the Sunrisers Hyderabad and led them in the first six games of the season before being sacked from captaincy for managing only 1 win in six matches.</p>

<p>He was replaced by Kane Williamson as the captain of the side and was left out of the playing XI for the side's seventh game of the season. In the UAE leg, Warner featured in SRH's first two games before being dropped again for the remainder of the season. It was quite evident that SRH have started looking beyond Warner and the Aussie batsman has now all but confirmed his exit from the side.</p>

<p>After enduring one of his worst seasons in the IPL with SRH, Warner took to Instagram&nbsp;on Sunday (October 10) to share a heartfelt post, capturing some of the defining moments of his journey with SRH. "My favourite moment!! Plus, A few pics from our journey, but the last pic is a big thank you for the support shown to us," Warner wrote with a series of pictures of himself in SRH's jersey.</p>

David Warner leaving SRH? Australian star's heartfelt post on Instagram hints at his exit

<p>The 21-year-old pacer Umran Malik, who is part of the SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) squad in the Indian Premier League 2021, has made a lasting impression on one and all with his bowling talent. During the 14th edition of IPL, he recorded the fastest delivery of the season as he clocked 153 kph to bowl against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB).&nbsp;</p>

<p>Despite SRH's failure to reach the playoffs, it has been a fairytale run for Malik, who hails from India's Jammu and Kashmir state. For IPL 2021, he was recruited as a net bowler for The Orange Army, however, was included in the main squad when T Natarajan was ruled out due to COVID-19.&nbsp;</p>

<p>If reports on ESPNcricinfo are to be believed, he has now been chosen as Team India's net bowler for the upcoming T20 World Cup. "Yes, he will be staying back with the team as a net bowler. He was impressive in the IPL and we feel it will be a good idea to have the batsmen face him at the nets. It will also be a good exposure for him to bowl to the quality batsmen like Kohli and Rohit," ANI also reported, quoting a source.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Umran's talent didn't go unnoticed by Virat as he had said, "This tournament throws up talent every year, good to see a guy bowling at 150 clicks. It is important to understand the progress of individuals from hereon.

The 21-year-old pacer Umran Malik, who is part of the SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) squad in the Indian Premier League 2021, has made a lasting impression on one and all with his bowling talent.

The 21-year-old pacer Umran Malik, who is part of the SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) squad in the Indian Premier League 2021, has made a lasting impression on one and all with his bowling talent. During the 14th edition of IPL, he recorded the fastest delivery of the season as he clocked 153 kph to bowl against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). Despite SRH's failure to reach the playoffs, it has been a fairytale run for Malik, who hails from India's Jammu and Kashmir state. For IPL 2021, he was recruited as a net bowler for The Orange Army, however, was included in the main squad when T Natarajan was ruled out due to COVID-19.

"Yes, he will be staying back with the team as a net bowler. He was impressive in the IPL and we feel it will be a good idea to have the batsmen face him at the nets. It will also be a good exposure for him to bowl to the quality batsmen like Kohli and Rohit," ANI also reported, quoting a source. "In 2018, I was practicing regularly.

T20 World Cup: Pacer Umran Malik selected as Team India's net bowler, reports reveal

<p>Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH)'s former captain David Warner had a season to forget in the recently-concluded Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021. Warner started the season as the captain of the side before being asked to step down from captaincy midway. He was then dropped from the playing XI, hinting at his exit from the side ahead of the upcoming mega auction.</p>

<p>Warner was replaced by Kane Williamson as the captain of SRH after the side managed only one win in their first six games. He was then left out of the playing XI for SRH's seventh game of the season before the tournament had to be postponed due to COVID-19. The Australian batsman returned to playing XI for SRH's first two games in the UAE leg before being dropped again for the remainder of the season.</p>

<p>Warner didn't even get to travel with the rest of the squad to the stadiums during the later stages of the tournament and the franchise's treatment of their former captain was questioned by many. On Saturday, SRH released a farewell video for fans after the conclusion of IPL 2021's league stages as they failed to make it to the playoffs this year.</p>

<p>Warner was missing from the video shared by the Orange Army on social media, prompting fans to ask about his absence. One of the fans tagged Warner on Instagram and asked him why he was not in the farewell video. The Australian star responded and stated that he was not asked to be in the video.</p>

'I wasn't asked to do it': David Warner responds to fan after going missing from SRH's farewell video

<p>West Indies batting legend Brian Lara feels that Sunrisers Hyderabad need to look at building a side around tall all-rounder Jason Holder for the next Indian Premier League (IPL) season, adding that the skipper should be a local pick as it "allows them to manage overseas slots better".<br />
<br />
SRH had a forgettable IPL 2021, finishing the season last with only three wins from 14 games. They removed David Warner as skipper following a dismal run during the India leg and put New Zealand`s Kane Williamson in-charge of the side. However, their struggles continued and, on Friday, they lost the final league match of IPL 2021 to Mumbai Indians by 42 runs.</p>

<br />
"Jason Holder is the shining light in a disastrous season. I`m not sure if he is an out-and-out T20 player, but I feel they can build a team around him," Lara told cricket.com on Saturday.<br />
<br />
Lara said having a local player as captain allows teams to be more flexible with their foreign recruits for the four slots in playing eleven.<br />
<br />
"It`s always great to have a local player to lead the side because you only have four selections in the playing XI and you are carrying the captain in that. There is a big auction coming up and SRH have a lot of shaking up to do. Let`s see how they will get the right group to move forward," he said.</p>

<br />
Lara said that it was difficult to find positives in a side whose performance kept slipping with every match.<br />
<br />
"It`s tough to pinpoint any positives. Rashid Khan was not at his best. They lost Jonny Bairstow and they got Jason Roy, there is not much they gained from that," Lara said.<br />
<br />
However Lara praised the Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai Indians, who despite bowing out of the tournament on Friday, scored their highest ever total in the IPL.<br />
<br />
"Mumbai scored their highest ever total in the IPL, so where was 75 per cent of that effort in previous matches which would`ve kept them in the tournament. They went from abysmal to outstanding. It was about personality, the way Ishan Kishan (84) and Suryakumar Yadav (82) batted so well. The IPL is just six months away so I think they will carry this into the next tournament just like CSK did from IPL 2020.<br />
<br />
"Mumbai Indians had an equation which was almost impossible but they gave it a go. But they will be happy that the Indian players got good runs ahead of World Cup," Lara added.</p>

"It`s tough to pinpoint any positives. Rashid Khan was not at his best. They lost Jonny Bairstow and they got Jason Roy, there is not much they gained from that," Lara said. However Lara praised the Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai Indians, who despite bowing out of the tournament on Friday, scored their highest ever total in the IPL. "Mumbai scored their highest ever total in the IPL, so where was 75 per cent of that effort in previous matches which would`ve kept them in the tournament. They went from abysmal to outstanding. It was about personality, the way Ishan Kishan (84) and Suryakumar Yadav (82) batted so well. The IPL is just six months away so I think they will carry this into the next tournament just like CSK did from IPL 2020. "Mumbai Indians had an equation which was almost impossible but they gave it a go. But they will be happy that the Indian players got good runs ahead of World Cup," Lara added.

Sunrisers Hyderabad should build their side around Jason Holder next season: Brian Lara

<p>David Warner had a dramatic fall from grace at Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 as he endured one of his worst seasons. From being sacked from captaincy to getting&nbsp;dropped from the playing XI, SRH's treatment of the star Australian batsman raised eyebrows throughout the league stage of the tournament which concluded on Friday (October 08).</p>

<p>Warner, who has been one of the most consistent run-getters in IPL over the years, was sacked from captaincy midway through the 2021 season. He was replaced by Kane Williamson as the captain of the side before being entirely dropped from the playing XI. He did feature in SRH's first couple of matches in the UAE leg of the tournament before being left out for the remainder of the season.</p>

<p>Several former cricketers and fans questioned SRH's treatment of their former captain, slamming the franchise's team management. Now, a report in <em>Foxsports.com.au</em> has claimed that SRH's Director of Cricket Tom Moody's desire to become the next head coach of the Indian cricket team can be one of the reasons behind Warner's fall from grace at the franchise.</p>

<p>The report claimed that Moody wants to replace Ravi Shastri as the next head coach of team India and has set his sight on the top post. The report also added that the owners of SRH are 'influential' figures in BCCI which might have prompted Moody to make the decision of benching Warner and giving Indian youngsters a chance in IPL 2021.</p>

<p>"It’s understood by foxsports.com.au the former World Cup-winner and well-travelled coach is eyeing the Indian coaching job, which is set to be vacated by Shastri following the impending T20 World Cup. Moody, who after a long stint as head coach of the Sunrisers, where together with Warner as his captain led them to glory in 2016, was replaced by former England coach Trevor Bayliss but later named as the franchise’s director of cricket," said the report.</p>

<p>"It’s believed the Sunrisers’ owners are influential figures in the BCCI, which could explain the decision to leave Warner out for their past half-a-dozen matches and turn to youth,’’ the report added.</p>

<p>Moody had applied for the India head coach post in the year 2019 when Shastri's contract was extended by the BCCI. Moody was the head coach of SRH for seven years from 2013 to 2019 and led the team to their only IPL title in 2016 with Warner as captain.</p>

<p>Trevor Bayliss replaced Moody as the head coach of SRH in 2020. However, in December 2020, the former Australian cricketer was named SRH's Director of Cricket. It remains to be seen if Moody will apply for the India head coach post after Shastri's exit post the T20 World Cup 2021.</p>

<p>Match 55 of the IPL 2021 edition will see the defending champions and five-time winners Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai Indians (MI) face the bottom-lying Kane Williamson-led Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium, Abu Dhabi on Friday afternoon (October 8).</p>

<p>MI are coming into this game with a heavy task; to beat SRH by a huge margin --&nbsp; by 170 runs or more&nbsp;-- in order to leapfrog Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and attain the fourth spot in the playoffs. For the unversed, KKR are overwhelming favourites for the remaining spot and are sitting pretty at the fourth position currently following a massive 86-run win over Rajasthan Royals (RR) on Thursday evening. KKR also have the net run-rate in their favour, hence, MI will have to beat SRH by a humongous and almost near-impossible margin to qualify further. They cannot advance further if SRH bat first.</p>

<p>SRH, on the other hand, are coming into this game on the back of a spirited 4-run win over the Virat Kohli-led Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at Sharjah. Having a disastrous campaign in IPL 14, SRH will be desperate to sign off on a high with another win under their belt. Jason Roy, Jason Holder, Williamson, Rashid Khan and Bhuvneshwar Kumar will continue to be their best bets versus MI, with eyes on speedster Umran Malik as well.</p>

MI vs SRH, IPL 2021 prediction today: Who will win Mumbai Indians vs Sunrisers Hyderabad match?

<p>Match 55 of the IPL 2021 will see the defending champions Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai Indians (MI) face the bottom-lying Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in what will be the penultimate match of the league stage. While the MI franchise are very much on the verge of an early exit, the SRH camp will like to sign off on a high in what has been a disastrous campaign for the Orange Army.</p>

<p>For the unversed, MI can't qualify if SRH bat first. They need to beat the Hyderabad line-up by a whopping 171-run margin, or more, to topple Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and take the fourth spot. Hence, KKR look certain to take the fourth spot and already have one foot in the playoffs following a massive 86-run win over Rajasthan Royals (RR) on Thursday (October 7).</p>

<p>SRH achieved a much-needed win over Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in their last game. They will fancy their chances of batting first and scoring a modest score, which has been the norm in the UAE leg, to later defend it versus the MI camp. MI's batting has been a huge letdown, hence, they may face the pressure versus a nothing-to-lose SRH franchise.</p>

IPL 2021, MI vs SRH, Live Streaming: When and where to watch Mumbai Indians vs Sunrisers Hyderabad?

<p>Defending champions Mumbai Indians beat Sunrisers Hyderabad by 42 runs in a high-scoring game here on Friday but their spirited effort was not enough to take them to the IPL play-offs.</p>

<p>After amassing 235 for nine, MI needed to limit SRH to 65 or less to qualify for the play-offs ahead of KKR but expectedly that did not happen. SRH ended with 193 for eight with stand-in captain Manish Pandey making an unbeaten 69 off 41 balls.</p>

<p>It is for the first time in three seasons that five-time champions MI have not entered the last four after lifting the trophy in the past two editions.</p>

<p>MI needed a miracle and the script unfolded in their favour, at least in the first innings, when they opted to bat and posted a mammoth score. Ishan Kishan (84 off 32) and Suryakumar Yadav (82 off 40) struck whirlwind fifties as MI meant business from the onset.</p>

<p>But it was not to be for MI as they failed to restrict SRH to their desired target, even though they won the match comfortably. Even though MI and KKR ended their round-robin engagements on 14 points from as many games, the Kolkata outfit leapfrogged Rohit Sharma's side on net run rate.</p>

<p>Delhi Capitals and Chennai Super Kings will face each other in the Qualifier 1 on Sunday, while KKR will be up against Royal Challengers Bangalore in the eliminator on October 11.</p>

<p>Chasing 236, Jason Roy (34 off 21) and Abhishek Sharma (33 off 16) got SRH off to a flier, stitching 64 runs in 5.2 overs. But SRH lost their plot soon after the dismissal of the openers with Jimmy Neesham striking twice -- first accounting for Sharma and then Abdul Samad.</p>

<p>Pandey (69 off 41; 7x4s, 2x6s) and Priyan Garg (29) shared 56 runs for the fifth wicket before Jasprit Bumrah dislodged the stand.</p>

<p>Pandey played a captain's knock and kept SRH in the hunt, albeit mathematically, reaching his 50 off 30 balls.<br />
It was always going to be an uphill task for SRH to get 70 runs off 24 balls and it turned out to be so with Pandey remaining unbeaten.</p>

<p>Earlier, MI openers -- Kishan and skipper Rohit Sharma (18 off 13) meant business and showed the intent from the onset.</p>

<p>Kishan, especially, was in a belligerent mood as he went hammer and tongs and didn't spare a single SRH bowler to bring up his fifty in just 16 balls, the fastest half-century this season. It was raining boundaries and sixes for Kishan in every over as MI raced to 78 runs in the first five overs.</p>

<p>It looked like child's play for Kishan as he clobbered Rashid over the deep midwicket to bring up the team's 100 in 7.1 overs.</p>

<p>Kishan finally departed in the 10th over when he top-edged an Umran Malik delivery to Wriddhiman Saha behind the stumps. After Kishan's dismissal, SRH pulled things back, courtesy some smart captaincy from Pandey, who replaced Kane Williamson out with an elbow niggle.</p>

<p>A courageous Pandey brought young left-arm spinner Sharma into the attck in the 13th over and the bowler reposed his captain's faith by removing Kieron Pollard (12) and Neesham in final two balls of the over to stand in chance for a hat-trick.</p>

<p>Yadav, who had not been at his best in the second leg so far, rose to the occasion when it matterd and took the onus of guiding MI innings after Kishan's dismissal.&nbsp;</p>

Mumbai Indians fail to make it to IPL 2021 playoffs despite 42-run win over Sunrisers Hyderabad

<p>David Warner has had to endure a disastrous season with Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021. Warner was sacked from captaincy midway through the season before being dropped from the playing XI in what has been one of the worst campaigns for him in the cash-rich league.</p>

<p>Warner was sacked from captaincy after SRH managed just one win in their first six games during the India leg of the IPL 2021 season. The Australian star was then dropped from the playing XI before making his comeback in the UAE leg of the tournament. In UAE, Warner played two games in the absence of Jonny Bairstow before being dropped from the playing XI completely due to his poor form.</p>

<p>Warner didn't even travel to the stadiums for a few games and was seen cheering for SRH from the stands in their game against Kolkata Knight Riders )KKR) earlier this week. Warner seems to be on his way out of SRH post the conclusion of the ongoing season and many were expecting the franchise to give him a farewell tonight in their final league game against Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi.</p>

<p>However, Warner was not included in the playing XI against MI despite Kane Williamson missing the clash. Manish Pandey is leading the side in the absence of Williamson. Hinting at his SRH exit, Warner took to social media to post an emotional message for the fans.</p>

<p>"Thank You for the memories created. To all the fans, you have been a driving force for our team always to give 100%. I can’t thank you all enough for the support shown. It’s been a great ride. My family and I are going to miss you all!! #respect #cricket #hyderabad One last effort today," Warner wrote on Instagram.</p>

David Warner has had to endure a disastrous season with Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021.

David Warner has had to endure a disastrous season with Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021. Warner was sacked from captaincy midway through the season before being dropped from the playing XI in what has been one of the worst campaigns for him in the cash-rich league. Warner was sacked from captaincy after SRH managed just one win in their first six games during the India leg of the IPL 2021 season. The Australian star was then dropped from the playing XI before making his comeback in the UAE leg of the tournament. In UAE, Warner played two games in the absence of Jonny Bairstow before being dropped from the playing XI completely due to his poor form. Warner didn't even travel to the stadiums for a few games and was seen cheering for SRH from the stands in their game against Kolkata Knight Riders )KKR) earlier this week. Warner seems to be on his way out of SRH post the conclusion of the ongoing season and many were expecting the franchise to give him a farewell tonight in their final league game against Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. However, Warner was not included in the playing XI against MI despite Kane Williamson missing the clash. Manish Pandey is leading the side in the absence of Williamson. Hinting at his SRH exit, Warner took to social media to post an emotional message for the fans. "Thank You for the memories created. To all the fans, you have been a driving force for our team always to give 100%. I can’t thank you all enough for the support shown. It’s been a great ride. My family and I are going to miss you all!! #respect #cricket #hyderabad One last effort today," Warner wrote on Instagram.

David Warner hints at SRH exit in emotional post: My family and I are going to miss you

<p>Mumbai Indians (MI) star Ishan Kishan slammed the fastest fifty of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 season, against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Friday (October 08). In search of an unlikely win by a huge margin of 171 runs to keep their playoffs hopes alive, Kishan got MI off to a flying start against SRH in their final league game of the season.</p>

<p>Kishan was promoted to open the batting with captain Rohit Sharma and the Indian wicket-keeper batsman wasted no time in launching an all-out attack against the SRH bowlers. He went after the SRH bowlers from the word go and got his team off to a flyer with 26 runs from the first two overs.</p>

<p>Kishan smashed 18 runs off the second over bowled by Siddharth Kaul with the help of 4 consecutive boundaries before taking Mohammad Nabi and Jason Holder to the cleaners in the next two over en-route to a quickfire fifty off just 16 balls. Kishan notched up his 50 in just 16 balls with the help of nine fours and a six as MI piled on a staggering 83 runs in the first six overs.</p>

<p>Kishan slammed the fastest fifty by a batsman in IPL 2021 and the third fastest overall. KL Rahul holds the record for the fastest fifty in the history of IPL, having notched up his half-century in just 14 balls.</p>

Ishan Kishan slams fastest fifty of IPL 2021 season as Mumbai Indians aim for unlikely playoffs spot

<p>Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai Indians (MI) will face the bottom-lying Kane Williamson-led Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in match 55 of the IPL 2021 edition, on Friday evening (October 8), at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium, Abu Dhabi. With Kolkata Knight Riders' (KKR) whopping 86-run win over Rajasthan Royals (RR), the Eoin Morgan-led franchise have done everything asked of them to secure the remaining fourth playoffs spot.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, MI are still not completely out of the playoffs race. Nonetheless, they have an improbable task ahead of themselves to thrash SRH by a huge margin and topple KKR to take the fourth spot. The equation is nearly impossible for the defending champions and five-time winners as they need to beat SRH by 170 runs, or more, and cannot qualify further if they bat second.</p>

<p>Hence, the toss itself can end MI's campaign, who are currently at the sixth position, if they are made to bat second. Thus, Punjab Kings' (PBKS) batting coach Wasim Jaffer took a cue from Bollywood's iconic movie (<em>Aamir Khan and Salman Khan-starrer&nbsp;Andaz&nbsp;Apna Apna)&nbsp;</em>to troll MI. <strong>Here's what he wrote and posted on his official Instagram handle:</strong></p>

<p>Even if MI bat first, they will need to pile up a huge total and bundle out SRH for a very low score. Thus, it seems that MI are look set to play their last match in IPL 14. While they can certainly match KKR's points tally (14) with a win over SRH and end at the fifth position, over PBKS, it will need a miracle for them to enter the next round.&nbsp;</p>


Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai Indians (MI) will face the bottom-lying Kane Williamson-led Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in match 55 of the IPL 2021 edition, on Friday evening (October 8), at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium, Abu Dhabi.

Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai Indians (MI) will face the bottom-lying Kane Williamson-led Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in match 55 of the IPL 2021 edition, on Friday evening (October 8), at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium, Abu Dhabi. With Kolkata Knight Riders' (KKR) whopping 86-run win over Rajasthan Royals (RR), the Eoin Morgan-led franchise have done everything asked of them to secure the remaining fourth playoffs spot. However, MI are still not completely out of the playoffs race. Nonetheless, they have an improbable task ahead of themselves to thrash SRH by a huge margin and topple KKR to take the fourth spot. The equation is nearly impossible for the defending champions and five-time winners as they need to beat SRH by 170 runs, or more, and cannot qualify further if they bat second.

How can Rohit Sharma-led MI still topple KKR to secure playoffs spot Hence, the toss itself can end MI's campaign, who are currently at the sixth position, if they are made to bat second. Thus, Punjab Kings' (PBKS) batting coach Wasim Jaffer took a cue from Bollywood's iconic movie (Aamir Khan and Salman Khan-starrer Andaz Apna Apna) to troll MI.
