Sandeep Sharma has filled in for SRH during Bhuvi's absence

Just like Samson, Sandeep Sharma was part of the Indian team which travelled to Zimbabwe. Sharma played two T20Is for India in 2015 and was later sidelined after the return of the senior team members.

Even in the Sunrisers Hyderabad camp, he has played the role of Bhuvneshwar Kumar's backup till now.

But with his exceptional performances, he might retain his spot in the XI even after Bhuvi's return.

In the four matches that he played till now, Sandeep picked up four wickets with an average of 11.00.

His economy rate of 4.40 for 15 overs is the best in the tournament so far. He is containing the run flow, which helps in building the pressure on the batsmen.

With the tour to England coming right after the IPL, Sharma might get a chance to play in England as the conditions suit his style of bowling.

In case he uses the opportunity rightly, Sharma might also make it to the 2019 World Cup in England
