‘Told Aniket If You Get Selected, I Will Also Get In,’ Says SRH's Newest Recruit Shivang Kumar
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Manifestation met reality for Madhya Pradesh’s left-arm wrist-spin all-rounder Shivang Kumar when Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) picked him in the IPL 2026 auction at his base price of Rs 30 lakh.
The move to rope him in by SRH reunites Shivang, who bats right-handed and is capable of producing big hits, with best friend and Madhya Pradesh teammate Aniket Verma, who was one of the finds for the franchise in a disappointing 2025 season.
"First of all, I am very excited to play for SRH. It’s a team of my teammate and best friend Aniket Verma. With me now going to his team, there is also this excitement feeling because I told him last year that if you get selected, then I will also get selected in it.
