Sunrisers Hyderabad have suffered a major setback in the 16th season of the Indian Premier League. Star all-rounder Washington Sundar will not be able to be a part of the remaining matches of IPL 16 due to a hamstring injury. However, Sundar’s replacement has not been announced by Hyderabad.
Washington Sundar was not yet proving effective with bat and ball in the 16th season of IPL. Sundar scored only 60 runs in five innings of 7 matches played in IPL 16 at an average of 15 and a strike rate of 100. During this, Sundar’s best score was 24 not out. Even with the ball, Sundar performed very disappointingly this season. Sundar took just three wickets this season while bowling 17.4 overs in 7 matches. It is worth noting that Sundar got three wickets in a single match, while in the remaining 6 matches he did not manage to take any other wicket.
However, due to Sundar not playing, Sunrisers Hyderabad will miss him in the middle order. Not only this, as the tournament progresses, the pitches will become more helpful for the spinners. In such a situation, the absence of Washington Sundar is a big blow for Hyderabad.
Let us tell you that despite betting on big players this season, the performance of Sunrisers Hyderabad has been very disappointing. Sunrisers Hyderabad have won only two out of 7 matches played so far. Sunrisers Hyderabad are currently at the 9th position in the table with 4 points and their chances of reaching the playoffs are very slim.
