IPL 2019: One player from each team who might not get a single game

#8 Sunrisers Hyderabad - Shakib Al Hasan

Shakib al Hasan

Sunrisers Hyderabad has always possessed massive bench strength right from their entry in 2013. That was evident in the last season, as they almost won the season, despite losing their captain (David Warner) who had been their top-scorer in every season since 2014 which includes two orange caps.

Even in this season, they were ready to trade an Indian in-form impact player in Shikhar Dhawan and still look stronger than before. Tom Moody and his backroom staff have to be credited for maintaining the squad and not disturbing the balance. 2019 season will provide a new challenge for them, as might miss the services of Shakib al Hasan due to his national commitments.

With Bangladesh tour of New Zealand getting over by March 20 and with the deadline for Bangladesh players to return for their World Cup preparation on April 15, he might be available for only 3 to 4 games. And, the emergence of Vijay Shankar and the experience of Mohammed Nabi available, they might opt to play these two instead of Shakib.
