IPL 2020: Predicting where each team will finish on the points table
Pat Cummins, Glenn Maxwell and Chris Morris emerged as the biggest winners of the auction as the trio fetched a deal of 10 Crores or more.
6. Sunrisers Hyderabad
The Orange Army, Sunrisers Hyderabad received a massive blow when Bangladeshi all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan was ruled out of IPL 2020. All SRH needed to do was sign Shakib’s replacement in the auction and seemingly they signed Mitchell Marsh for that role.
It is a bit confusing why Hyderabad signed him in the auction as they do not have any vacant overseas spots in the team. Besides, SRH had also released Deepak Hooda and Yusuf Pathan before the auction. They grabbed the duo of Priyam Garg and Virat Singh as their replacements.
The top order of Sunrisers looks solid with Kane Williamson, Jonny Bairstow, David Warner and Manish Pandey but the number 5 and 6 batsmen will decide their fate in the season. Since they do not have much experience in that section, it is unlikely that they will make it to the playoffs.
