IPL 2018: Sunrisers Hyderabad squad analysis

Bowling

Bhuvi will spearhead the SRH pace attack

Much like KKR, the team has a superb seam bowling unit. However, the emphasis in the SRH squad is on domestic talents which makes it even more effective as there will be little selection problems. Bhuvneshwar Kumar will lead the attack and will look to start in the same rhythm as he had been bowling throughout the last couple of seasons.

Siddarth Kaul, Basil Thampi, and Sandeep Sharma make for a good looking pace attack and in case this isn’t enough there is Chris Jordan in the scheme of things as well.

Australia's Billy Stanlake will also don the orange jersey and will look to claim a place in the first 11, after his stint in the Big Bash League.

In the spin department, Rashid Khan (135 wickets in 91 T20s, averaging 15.14 at under 6 runs an over) is sure to get a place and will lead the attack. From the domestic scene, T Natarajan (27 wickets in 9 First Class Matches) can be a big boost.
