David Warner is the current highest run-getter among foreign batsmen in IPL history with 4014 runs at an astounding average of 40.54 and a strike rate of 142. He started with Delhi Daredevils. Later picked up by the Sunrisers Hyderabad and has led them since 2015, till 2017.

The unfortunate ball-tampering incident made him resign in 2018. His return in 2019 will definitely boost SRH. He has been their highest run-getter since and winning the Orange Cap a couple of times. His batting record alone is enough to ensure a place in the All-time XI of IPL. His captaincy is equally at par with his batting with an impressive win percentage of 57 making him one of the successful captains in the IPL.

In the three years as a captain at SRH, he has led them to two playoffs and won a title in 2016. The Orange Cap in 2015 and 2017 he won is a testimony to the fact that he is one of those leaders who lead by example. His role in shaping up the relatively new SRH team and making it a strong force in a short time is immense.
