IPL 2025 Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) Official Squad Players List

Pat Cummins to be the leader in our official squad and players list for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) for IPL 2025.  

The 2024 IPL Runner-up team, Sunrisers Hyderabad reinvented themselves last year after having a few poor-performing years in the tournament. While the team started doing well under David Warner back in 2014-16, the team then shifted to Kane Williamson before finally moving on to Pat Cummins as the leader. The legacy of SRH always wanting an Overseas coach continues in IPL 2025 too.

After Pat Cummins did really well as the Skipper last year, the team continued with Pat as the Skipper, and built the team surrounding him. The team retained five capped players, and then bought some really good names in the Auction. However, they remain one of the two teams to have the least number of players in the squad, 20. Also, there is definite lack of big Indian name in the squad, which has always been their case. 

Overall, Sunrisers Hyderabad have 20 players in their squad, of which there are 5 batters, 2 wicket-keepers, 3 all-rounders, and 10 bowlers. There are 7 Overseas players in their squad with the likes of Travis Head, Pat Cummins, and Heinrich Klaasen being there. So, here’s the complete breakdown of players and squad list for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) for IPL 2025.

IPL 2025 Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) Official Squad List Analyzed

Existing Players SRH Added

Sunrisers Hyderabad retained 5 players from their IPL 2024 squad in the form of Heinrich Klaasen, Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Pat Cummins, and Nitish Reddy. With 5 solid options retained, Sunrisers Hyderabad went into refresh mode in the Auction, and added only Jaydev Unadkat from the existing squad. Thus, SRH added only six players from their existing team for IPL 2025.

New Players that SRH Added

Talking about the new players that SRH added, there are many players that SRH added, and the focus was on getting quality bowlers in the side. Among the quality bowlers that SRH added, we are looking at the likes of Mohammed Shami, Harshal Patel, Rahul Chahar, Adam Zampa, Brydon Carse, Simarjeet Singh, and Ehsan Malinga. There is definitely quality in the bowling department, and to complement that they have an aggressive batting unit. 

Other than focusing on bowlers, Sunrisers Hyderabad bought Ishan Kishan in a value-for-money deal of 11.25 Cr. The team also bought the likes of Abhinav Manohar, Atharva Taide, Sachin Baby, and Kamindu Mendis to strengthen the batting department, but one can clearly see there’s a lack of quality in this area. So, here’s the complete squad and players list for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) for IPL 2025.
