Guardian of Sunrisers Hyderabad Ship – Kane Williamson

Sunrisers Hyderabad shocked cricket fans when they decided to step down David Warner as captain and gave opportunity to Kane Williamson to lead team. The move was taken due to bad performance of Sunrisers Hyderabad team in last two IPL seasons and Warner’s own batting performance as opener. Kane Williamson was a good choice. He is current captain of New Zealand cricket team in all formats.

Looking at current performance of New Zealand in ICC T20 world cup at UAE, Kane Williamson is first choice for retention for Sunrisers Hyderabad. He is known for his cool and calm nature and make him perfect for captain of Sunrisers Hyderabad.

As a batsman, Kane Williamson is useful for number 3 and 4 position in the team. His international experience is very helpful to steady inning if openers are out early.

Apart from Kane Williamson, second choice of retention for Sunrisers Hyderabad is Rashid Khan. His current form in ICC T20 world cup at UAE is very good and he is backbone of Sunrisers Hyderabad bowing attack at Indian pitches.

There is much speculation going on about retention of Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Current form of Bhuvneshwar Kumar is not up to his reputation and he was not part of last four games of India at ICC T20 world cup at UAE. Considering value for money and confirmation in playing 11, Bhuvneshwar Kumar should not be retained.

There are lot of promising Indian players in current Sunrisers Hyderabad squad but as per my understanding, they will not retain any other Indian players and will not reduce their purse size at IPL mega auction 2022.

Retained players possibility – Kane Williamson, Rashid Khan, Wriddhiman Saha (very less chance)
