SRH need an Indian opener to act as a backup for David Warner since he will leave the tournament half-way for the International duty. RCB picked up Manan Vohra for a sum of 1.1 crores last season after an auction war with Delhi Daredevils. However, the stylish opening batsman was asked to play in the middle order for RCB as Virat Kohli opened the innings.

He got only four games to bat and scored 55 runs failing to make an impact. Vohra cannot be blamed entirely for his dismal season as he was expected to perform well in his unfamiliar batting position.

Now that RCB has released him, Vohra can find a team who trust him with his opening batting. SRH needs an Indian opener and it will be a win-win for both SRH and Vohra should they buy him in the auction this season.
