5 players SRH could retain ahead of IPL 2025 mega auction

2. Abhishek Sharma

Abhishek Sharma showcased his aggressive stroke play during the IPL 2024 season. The promising young all-rounder took the opposition bowling attacks to the cleaners and scored runs at a rate of knots. He is one of the young assets whom SRH will look to return ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction.

The Hyderabad based franchise would be backing a young talent like Abhishek Sharma. He has all the potential to become a future star. Having been a part of the IPL since 2018, the 24-year-old young opening batsman has played 63 games so far.

He scored 1377 runs at a strike rate of 155.2, including seven half centuries. On the other hand, he has been a pretty decent spinner, accounting for 11 dismissals at an economy of 8.64.

3. Travis Head

Travis Head has been a dynamic left-handed batsman for Sunrisers Hyderabad at the top of the order. He is best known for his aggressive approach and has dominated spinners and faces equally well. In the last season, he accelerated the scoring rate when it mattered the most.

For sure, the Sunrisers will look to retain Travis Head, who has all the potential to anchor the innings and shift gears when required especially during the run-chase or setting up competitive totals. Having played 25 games so far, since 2016, he scored 772 runs including 1 century and five half centuries.
