SRH Squad 2024 | Retained, Released and Auction Players List

Sunrisers Hyderabad’s performance was very bad last year in IPL 2023. The SRH squad for IPL 2024 will be strong after losing back-to-back five matches and unable to qualify for the playoffs because they consumed the largest purse in the recent auction. SRH management knows exactly how to come back and rebound in upcoming IPL 2024. The bad days of Sunrisers Hyderabad started when the team management removed David Warner from captaincy in 2021. After that, the team never qualified for playoffs and was knocked out from the league stage from 2021 to 2023.

SRH Team History

Sunrisers Hyderabad was added as a new team in the Indian Premier League in 2012. The Deccan Chargers were replaced with Sunrisers Hyderabad, and they played their first IPL season in 2013. The Hyderabad-based team played their practice matches at Rajiv Gandhi Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad, India, as their home ground. Sun TV Network owned the SRH team in a bidding war for an amount of ₹85.05 crore, approximately USD 11 million.
