IPL 2021: Ranking teams based on their final squads
The teams were on their toes in the auction to buy their players.
7. Sunrisers Hyderabad
The middle order of Sunrisers Hyderabad has always been a weakness. Although they signed Kedar Jadhav, his current form might not be enough to overshadow that weakness. David Warner has usually been the one-man army, but this year, the burden on him might reduce.
Wriddhiman Saha’s stint in IPL 2020 strengthened his place in the team as an opener. With that, there is an overseas spot vacant for Kane Williamson. Jason Holder could also play as a finisher along with Abdul Samad or Abhishek Sharma.
The bowling is undoubtedly the biggest strength of Sunrisers Hyderabad. There is no weakness for the Orange Army with the ball and are probably the best bowling line-up of the tournament. The death bowling duo of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and T Natarajan is hard to score against and Rashid Khan in the middle overs completely stops the run-flow. If their batting does as good as their bowling, no team can stop them from winning the IPL tournament.
