Retention Created by Sunrisers Hyderabad
Sunrisers Hyderabad have retained the core of their powerful batting lineup including Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma and Heinrich Klaasen.
Key players of Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2026
Abhishek Sharma
The hard-hitting opener, who is in the best form of his life in 2025, will look to continue this in the next season of the IPL while playing for Sunrisers Hyderabad, as the left-handed batsman is difficult to stop if he gets going.
Abhishek has the ability to snatch the game from the opposition team in just a few balls by putting pressure on the bowlers through his aggressive playing style in the first six overs.
If Abhishek is able to perform well at the start of the tournament next year, it will boost SRH’s chances of qualifying for the playoffs.
travis head
Like Abhishek, his opening partner Travis Head has also been in good form and will hope to maintain the same while playing for the former champions in the 19th edition of the Indian Premier League.
Both of SRH’s options complement each other well when batting at the top of the order, and when the bowlers are in form they are left with no options, and that is exactly what SRH will be hoping for next season.
pat cummins
ODI World Cup-winning skipper Pat Cummins did a good job as SRH captain in 2024, but was not able to repeat it last year, and will aim to make good use of resources in IPL 2026.
One of the challenges for Pat Cummins at the start of the season will be to identify the best combination as per the conditions in the batting and bowling department, which he struggled to do in the previous edition.
heinrich classen
One reason for SRH’s poor performance last season was Heinrich Klaasen’s form or lack thereof, given that he was an integral part of the inexperienced middle order.
Even after saying this, the wicketkeeper batsman was not given. His consistent runs at a particular spot compared to the 2024 season, where he took on the spinners in the middle phase of SRH’s batting innings, and will hope for more clarity in 2026.
Sunrisers Hyderabad’s performance in IPL
SRH would like to get their mojo back in the upcoming season, as the team had earned the prestige of qualifying for the playoffs in every season from 2013 to 2020 and were close to becoming champions in 2024.
