Sunrisers Hyderabad Captain: Aiden Markram

Markram isn’t new to captaincy. He recently led Sunrisers Eastern Cape to the inaugural SA20 title earlier this month. After a fine show in SA20 with bat, ball and captaincy it was expected that Aiden Markram would be named the skipper of Sunrisers Hyderabad as well. The all-rounder has been in rich vein of form in T20s in the last year or so and this added responsibility would only grace his game.

SRH haven’t named a deputy yet for Markram, but it is expected that Indian seamer Bhuvneshwar Kumar will be the vice-captain of the team as he has led Sunrisers Hyderabad previously in the absence of their regular skipper.

Sunrisers had a really good IPL 2023 auction as they got the services of the likes of Harry Brook, Mayank Agarwal, Adil Rashid, Akeal Hossein and others. Take a look at Sunrisers Hyderabad’s IPL 2023 auction buys,
