The Sunrisers Hyderabad (often abbreviated as SRH) are a franchise cricket team based in Hyderabad, India, which plays in the Indian Premier League (IPL). They were one of the eight teams to compete in the 2020 Indian Premier League, which was their eighth outing in IPL tournaments. The team was captained by David Warner and coached by Trevor Bayliss with Brad Haddin as assistant coach, Muttiah Muralitharan as bowling coach and VVS Laxman as mentor.[1][2]

They began their season by losing their opening fixture on 21 September, and went on to become the last team to qualify for the play-offs by defeating Mumbai Indians on 3 November.[3] They beat the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Eliminator but lost to the Delhi Capitals in the Qualifier 2 by 17 runs to finish the season in third place.[4][5]

Background

David Warner was reinstated as the captain of the Sunrisers replacing Kane Williamson on 27 February 2020.[1]

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) released the fixture details on 18 February 2020.[6] The league stage was scheduled to start on 29 March 2020, with the opening match between Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings, the two finalist of the previous season.[7] On 13 March 2020, the BCCI postponed the tournament until 15 April, in view of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.[8] On 14 April 2020, the Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that the lockdown in India would last until at least 3 May 2020,[9] with the tournament postponed further.[10] The following day, the BCCI suspended the tournament indefinitely due to the pandemic.[11]

On 17 May 2020, the Indian government relaxed nation-wide restrictions on sports events, allowing events to take place behind closed doors.[12] On 24 May, Indian sports minister Kiren Rijiju stated that the decision on whether or not to allow the tournament to be conducted in 2020 will be made by the Indian government based on "the situation of the pandemic".[13] On 2 August 2020, it was announced that the tournament would be played between 19 September and 10 November 2020 in the United Arab Emirates.[14] On 10 August 2020, the Indian government gave its permission for the tournament to take place in the UAE.[15] The schedule for the league stage of this season were released on 6 September with the Sunrisers Hyderabad playing their first match against the Royal Challengers Bangalore on 21 September in a home game at Dubai.[16]

Player acquisition

In October 2019, ICC banned Shakib Al Hasan for two years after breaching the ICC's Anti-Corruption Code and hence was subsequently released from the squad by the Sunrisers Hyderabad on 15 November 2019.[17][18]

The Sunrisers Hyderabad retained 18 players and released five players as they announced their retention list on 15 November 2019 ahead of the auction.[19][18] They entered into the auction with the remaining salary cap of 17 crore (US$2.0 million) to fill seven available slots, of which two are for the overseas players.

Natarajan who bowled more yorkers than anyone in this tournament. He said, “Natarajan has been waiting in the wings. So to get a chance, to have an IPL the way he has is outstanding.”[37]
