IPL 2024 Auction: Final List of SRH Players Released, Retained, and Purse Available After Retention Day
The deadline to submit the list of released and retained players for IPL 2024 is over. Sunrisers Hyderabad took some interesting calls as they revealed their picks to be retained for the new season.
SRH was the bottom-most team on the points table last season, with just four wins from 14 league matches. Despite signing some emerging and established names in T20 cricket, the Orange army suffered a dismal fate in IPL 2023. SRH's think tank must dig in deep to scout and bid for players better suited for their style of play.
