Sunrisers Hyderabad is a team that needs no introduction to any cricket fans out there. They won the IPL Trophy back in 2016 but lately has been struggling to find their way back in.

In the 2021 IPL Tournament, SRH was one of the team to finish at the bottom of the points table.

SRH Team 2023: The Sun Risers Hyderabad came into existence in the Indian Premier League Edition of 2013. Before this, the Decan Chargers which was one of the teams in the Indian Premier League was dissolved due to the financial issues faced by the owner of this team.

The Sunrisers Hyderabad Team has also retained and released players from last year’s squad for IPL 2023.

Here in this article, we will provide the details related to the new player’s list. In addition, we will also provide the details regarding the captain of the team and the list of the retained players.

Furthermore, the article will also include the history of the team and its performance in previous years.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Team 2023 has a new hope with a new team and new captain, this year they are looking forward in taking the IPL Trophy home.

SRH is owned by Sun Tv and was formed in 2012. Most of the games they played as underdogs and finally winning their first ever trophy back in 2016.

At that time, it was David Warner who led the team to victory. 

With amount of Rs.68 Crore, the Sunrisers Hyderabad Team 2023 was looking forward to the auction as it is crucial that they need the best team this year to take home the IPL Trophy.

The IPL Mega option was very crucial for this franchise. The Sunrisers Hyderabad Team 2023 retained only 3 of their players.

One of the mistakes we think made by the SRH was not retaining David Warner whose 2021 IPL performance was incredible. We believe the IPL retention rule had something to with it.
