Sunrisers Hyderabad has retained one of the most destructive openers in the limited overs formats and one of the best bowlers for the same. Having retained David Warner and Bhuvneshwar Kumar, the Sunrisers Hyderabad have given themselves a great chance to build a formidable team around them.

Even in the last season, the Sunrisers Hyderabad had some really vital players playing for them like Shikhar Dhawan, Yuvraj Singh, and Henriques. Even the New Zealand Skipper, Kane Williamson was a part of the Sunrisers Hyderabad Camp. Now it would be interesting to see if these good players are brought back by the Sunrisers Hyderabad or they go to some other team.
Here’s the Cricket Longue’s Ideal XI for Sun Risers Hyderabad.
- Openers
David Warner
Gautam Gambhir

This forms a great left-handed- right-handed opening pair. David Warner is an explosive batsman who likes to go after the bowlers right from the word go. Gambhir, on the other hand, has scored a lot of runs in the IPL and can compliment David Warner nicely.
- Middle Order
One Down: Kane Williamson
Two Down: Yuvraj Singh
Three Down: Joss Butler (Wk)
Fourth Down: Mandeep Singh

- All Rounders
James Faulkner
He’s a very high utility all-rounder who can contribute nicely with the willow as well as the bowler. He’s one of the best death overs bowler in limited overs cricket.
Washington Sundar
The young promising talent is a spinner and can bat as well. He can be joined by Yuvraj Singh to chip in some overs of spin when needed.
4. Bowlers
Mohammad Siraj
Bhuvneshwar Kumar
Kuldeep Yadav
This forms a great bowling attack and these bowlers would be assisted by some great all-rounders.
