Speaking about their upcoming campaign, South Africa star Aiden Markram will be leading the franchise in IPL 2023. The 2016 IPL winners endured a dismal performance in the previous season after standing eighth on the points table with just six wins in their 14 outings in the lucrative T20 league.

Notably, SRH roped in Aiden Markram in 2022 after playing for the Punjab Kings in the 2021 edition. Additionally, the side did not retain former skipper Kane Williamson prior to the auction nor did the side re-acquire the services of the Kiwi batter in the bidding arena.
Aiden Markram recently won the inaugural SA20 title in South Africa with the Sunrisers Eastern Cape. In 12 matches, the flamboyant batter amassed 366 runs which included a century in the top-tier league. Moreover, Hyderabad boasts quite a few high-profile cricketers namely- Mayank Agarwal, Umran Malik, and Glenn Phillips among others.
