SRH will be captained by Kane Williamson in IPL 2022.
The SRH franchise had retained just Kane Williamson, Abdul Samad, and Umran Malik ahead of the IPL 2022 mega auction. However, they spent big money in the IPL 2022 auction with a purse of INR 68 crores.
Their biggest buy was West Indies keeper-batter Nicholas Pooran for INR 10.75 crores and the second most expensive was Washington Sundar for INR 8.75 crores. Rahul Tripathi also joined SRH for INR 8.5 crores. However, the SRH was fortunate to get back Bhuvneshwar Kumar and T Natarajan for under INR 5 crores each.
