6. Sunrisers Hyderabad
SRH wouldn’t want to hold on to- Chirs Jordan, Moises Henriques, Kane Williamson, Ben Cutting and Yuvraj Singh.
Chris Jordan, the English all-rounder has not enjoyed a lot of success in India with the lack of effective variations making him an easy target. Jordan was highly unsuccessful last season managing to pick just 1 wicket at an economy rate of 9.
Moises Henriques has been a vital member of the setup but does not enjoy the qualities necessary for a retention. Having managed 277 runs in 12 matches, Henriques’ all-around abilities may fail to make him an attractive option for retention.
Kane Williamson and Ben Cutting have shown some form in the last season for the Sunrisers but questions emerge over their ability to retain the same consistency expected from a retained player. Williamson scored 265 runs in 7 matches last season while Cutting picked 1 wicket in 4 matches scoring 51 runs.
Last but not the least, Yuvraj Singh may be a safe bet to invest in during the auction but his lack of exposure to strenuous cricketing action in recent times which the IPL demands sadly puts him on the blacklist for retentions. Singh managed to score just 252 runs in 12 matches last season.
