IPL 2019: 5 players SRH should buy in the trade

#2 Sanju Samson

Sanju Samson

This man needs no introduction in IPL. With 1867 runs in the tournament at an average of 27 and a strike rate of almost 130, Sanju Samson has been a consistent performer in the Indian Premier League. The 23-year-old was exceptional in IPL 2018 with 441 runs from 15 outings, which included three brilliant fifties. He has shown us in the past that he can win games for his team with the bat and also brilliant behind the stumps.

Though one cannot doubt Wriddhiman Saha's abilities as a wicket-keeper, his batting has always been under the scanner. In IPL 2018, Saha has scored only 122 runs for Hyderabad at an average of 15.25. He failed to make a single match-winning contribution and his highest score in the tournament was 35. Though SRH tried to fit him at various positions in the batting order, he simply could not click. SRH need a young keeper batsman who can score quickly and consistently.
