In 2015, David Warner was appointed the captain, and despite the team finishing sixth, he didn’t meet the same fate as his predecessor. It eventually proved to be a slice of luck as SRH went on to win the trophy in 2016, and in 2017, they finished third. Warner won the Orange Cap, while Bhuvneshwar Kumar got the Purple Cap.
In between, SRH also acquired the services of Rashid Khan and Mohammed Nabi, who were great assets.
In 2018, Warner received an international ban for his role in the Sandpapergate scandal. The captaincy changed hands. The franchise handed over the armband to Kane Williamson. He led the side brilliantly in Warner’s absence and took them to the final, where they lost to the Chennai Super Kings.
Although Warner returned to the side in 2019, he wasn’t given the captaincy. Williamson led the team to top-four finishes in the 2019 and 2020 seasons. The five years were one of their golden periods.
The end of the 2021 season saw two stalwarts leaving the franchise. Warner left the franchise after being stripped of the captaincy midway into the 2021 edition. Rashid Khan also exited SRH, where he made a name for himself in the global T20 arena.
Regarding recent performances, SRH has underperformed heavily, finishing eighth for two consecutive years – 2021 and 2022. The Hyderabad-based franchise finished at the bottom of the table in the 2023 season.
