The only Indian cricketer to score a century in an IPL final, Saha represented three different franchises before joining the Sunrisers Hyderabad this season. Saha was bought by the Sunrisers for INR 5 crore. The 2011 IPL winner played 10 games for the Orange Army in the league stage, in which he managed to score 87 runs at a strike-rate of 116.0.

He was then dropped due to his poor showing, with 2008 ICC Under 19 World Cup winning wicket-keeper batsman, Shreevats Goswami, replacing him in the side. Saha is an experienced player when it comes to the IPL, having featured in all the 11 seasons so far.

In 114 IPL games, Saha has scored 1644 runs at a strike-rate of 129.85, with his highest score being 115* (in the 2014 IPL final) against the Kolkata Knight Riders. The Indian Test wicket-keeper is most likely to be overlooked for the 2019 IPL due to his poor showings this season coupled with the fact that he is already 34.
