The Thursday evening saw the Indian Premier League (IPL) franchises putting forward their list of retained and released players, as yesterday was the deadline for the same. Most of the teams preferred to stick with the majority of their earlier-picked bunch while a few decided to discharge plenty, giving them an opportunity to reconstruct the team in mid-December-scheduled auctions.

The runners-up of the last edition, <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/ipl-2019-sunrisers-hyderabad-share-the-list-of-retained-and-released-players/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sunrisers Hyderabad</a> had earlier traded one of their core members, Shikhar Dhawan to Delhi Daredevils for Abhishek Sharma, Vijay Shankar, and Shahbaz Nadeem. They also released eight other players yesterday and now have another INR 9.70 crore left in their purse.

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/ipl-2019-steve-smith-and-david-warner-will-not-be-available-for-the-entire-season/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">David Warner&#8217;s</a> availability will surely help SRH but they would want to find a replacement for Dhawan who had a good couple of seasons with them. There are various options who they can look out for and add fuel to their batting setup. In this slide, we have found the three most appropriate replacements for the veteran in SRH squad.

Once a stable part of the Indian team, <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/ipl-2019-three-teams-that-can-pick-gautam-gambhir-in-the-auction/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gautam Gambhir</a> is no way near to the national scenes currently. He, however, had a scintillating Vijay Hazare Trophy, scoring over 500 runs in the ten matches. The 37-year-old helped Delhi make it to the finals of the List-A tournament. Last season, he captained Delhi Daredevils but decided to sit out mid-way through the event due to the team&#8217;s unimpressive run.

Meanwhile, Sunrisers Hyderabad&#8217;s search of replacing Dhawan in the squad could be well completed by the experience of Gambhir. The Delhi based batsman can play the sheet anchor&#8217;s role for them as they have a free flow run-scorer like David Warner as the other opener.

The Kiwi starlet, Brendon McCullum had a forgettable IPL 2018. At an average of 21.16, he made 127 runs in six matches, due to which RCB bid him goodbye ahead of the upcoming season. McCullum, who is known for his fearless batting can still catch limelight in the auctions. Sunrisers can be one of the teams that would keen to rope him in as Dhawan&#8217;s replacement.

He alongside Warner might do wonders for SRH, given both plays the way they are best known for. McCullum recently finished the Carribean Premier League (CPL) on top and followed it with a few good innings in the Afghanistan Premier League (APL) as well. However, McCullum&#8217;s fitness and form will determine his future in the later parts of IPL as the mega-league requires a player to show more than that.

Sunrisers Hyderabad might also give English batsman, Jason Roy, a thought as the substitute for Shikhar Dhawan. Roy, 28, is an attacking player who strikes at 104 in the 70 ODIs, he has played. The former Delhi Daredevils opener has been quite consistent at the top for England. He made a fiery 69 runs in the only T20I against Sri Lanka, helping them carve a 30-run win, recently.

Roy who owns over 4,700 runs in T20s could surely be a good choice for SRH to go with. They have overall five slots- three for local and two for overseas players- left. Meanwhile, as <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/rohit-sharma-lauds-joe-roots-gesture-as-the-latter-apologises-to-the-england-fans/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">England</a> players are expected to be unavailable after the mid-season, Sunrisers will have to think over his inclusion.

IPL 2019: 3 Players who can replace Shikhar Dhawan in SRH squad

The runners-up of the last edition, Sunrisers Hyderabad had earlier traded one of their core members, Shikhar Dhawan to Delhi Daredevils
