Marcus Stoinis was released by RCB ahead of the auction after a decent season with them. His release is a bit of a puzzle because his stats from last season were pretty impressive.

Stoinis scored 211 runs from 10 matches averaging 52.75 at a good strike-rate of 135.25. He wasn't given enough chances with the ball, but picked up 2 wickets bowling his medium pace.

The Aussie all-rounder is a very flexible batsman and can bat in all positions - right from opening the innings, to handling the lower order at No. 7. He is a very mature cricketer and can change gears very quickly. Ideally suited to batting at No. 5 or 6, he can solve SRH's middle-order issues while also being capable of providing 4 overs with the ball.

The 30-year old has cemented his place in the national ODI and is an integral part of the Melbourne Stars in the BBL, where he opens the batting. He has scored over 1700 runs in 84 T20 innings at a solid average of 28.27 and has picked up 61 wickets as well.

Wiese is likely to fall within the ₹2-4 crore price bracket as he isn't a big name like, say, Glenn Maxwell. Being a proven performer with an ever-improving track record, Stoinis should be targeted by SRH considering that he fits their requirements perfectly.
