Top 10 signings of IPL 2016

Ashish Nehra to Sunrisers Hyderabad

When the Chennai Super Kings bought Nehra last year, many wondered what their thought process actually was. However, in the last one year, his rise has been incredible.

After a good IPL and domestic circa, he was chosen for the Asia Cup and World T20 squad, again to the surprise of many. However, he silenced his critics with style as he was among the most economics bowlers in both the tournaments.

The think tanks at Hyderabad carried out a very well thought out plan in the auctions as they knew that they needed a support bowler to help the likes of Bhuvaneshwar Kumar get wickets…and Nehra is just that.
