Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) witnessed a forgettable outing in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 as they won just three victories from 13 matches so far. However, something that has been in constant talks is the stint of David Warner with SRH. He hasn’t featured for the team in their last four games of the UAE leg and did not find a place in the playing XI of the last game as well.
As SRH locked horns with Mumbai Indians (MI) in their last match of this season, the former skipper of the side has come forward to leave a heartfelt message for the fans. Warner took it to his official Instagram account to share an emotional picture of him in the team’s jersey and wrote a special caption for the fans of the franchise.

This is the first time David Warner has not been one of the highest run-getters for SRH for Sunrisers Hyderabad since he started playing for the franchise. This season he has scored only 195 runs in 8 innings which attracted a lot of criticism. But his previous seasons in the Orange jersey have been no less than prolific.

Since 2014, the southpaw scored – 528 (2014), 562 (2015), 848 (2016), 641 (2017), 692 (2019), and 548 (2020) – a whopping amount of runs for SRH and was almost every time the highest run-scorer of the team. Warner should feel hard done if he is released by the franchise ahead of the mega auction after just one bad season.
