It was clear from the starting only that SRH will not be retaining their winning skipper David Warner. He witnessed a miserable outing in the 2021 season where he was sacked from the captaincy and then was even removed from the playing XI. In the latest turn of events, SRH came up with an Instagram post where they thanked all their players for being part of their journey.
It had a group picture of players and SRH captioned it was: “We thank the players for their contribution to SRH over the years. This is not a goodbye, as we hope to welcome back some Risers in the auction.”
