IPL 2026: Sunrisers Hyderabad Retain Core; Release Zampa, Mulder, And Five Others
Indian Premier League: Sunrisers Hyderabad have confirmed their list of retained and released players ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 mini-auction, set for December in Abu Dhabi. As per BCCI’s November 15 deadline, all franchises submitted their final squads, with SRH opting for a balanced overhaul after an underwhelming title defence in the 2025 season.
The 2025 campaign saw SRH finish sixth on the points table, winning just six of their 14 matches and missing the playoffs by three points. With the need for fresh direction clear, the franchise has made significant changes—most notably releasing eight players, including veteran pacer Mohammed Shami, who has been traded to Lucknow Super Giants.
Australia leg-spinner Adam Zampa, Indian wrist-spinner Rahul Chahar, all-rounder Wiaan Mulder, and batter Abhinav Manohar were also released by the franchise. Domestic players Atharva Taide, Sachin Baby, and Simarjeet Singh joined the exit list as SRH trimmed down its squad to create space for new additions at the auction.
