Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) come into the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2020) with a strong roster.

Their batting lineup, while being heavily reliant on the top order, has a number of match-winners and young Indian stars, while the bowling attack is as penetrative and solid as ever.

Led by David Warner, SRH will be looking to replicate their feats from the 2016 season, in which they lifted the IPL title, this year.


5 SRH players who could finish IPL 2020 with the most Dream11 points

Ahead of IPL 2020, we take a look at 5 SRH players who could end the campaign with the most Dream11 points.


#5 Vijay Shankar

In a middle order lacking solidity and experience, Vijay Shankar will be one of the key players and it is highly likely that he will bat in the top 4. With either Manish Pandey or Wriddhiman Saha expected to slot in at No. 3 (Kane Williamson might be benched), the Tamil Nadu all-rounder will be in the perfect position to rack up some runs.

Shankar is also the only Indian pace-bowling all-rounder at SRH's disposal, and his handy bowling might be very effective on the slow UAE tracks. The right-hander could finish IPL 2020 with a significant amount of Dream11 points.


#4 Rashid Khan

A player who is always a favourite in Dream11, Rashid Khan will lead the SRH spin attack in IPL 2020 as always. However, the Afghanistan captain might even contribute significantly with the bat in the tournament, and showed what he is capable of at the other end of the pitch in the recently concluded Caribbean Premier League.

Rashid is slowly morphing into a complete all-rounder, and he could generate massive points hauls in Dream11. The one thing that might go against him, however, is that opposition batsmen often look to play it safe against him and not take too many risks.


#3 Mohammad Nabi

Another Afghanistan all-rounder who was on fire in the Caribbean Premier League, Mohammad Nabi almost single-handedly took his St Lucia Zouks side to the final. The 35-year-old has been in such good form that he might even keep New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson out of the SRH playing XI in IPL 2020.

Capable of striking lusty blows lower down the order and picking up crucial wickets in the powerplay, Nabi is the complete package and could generate massive Dream11 points in IPL 2020.


#2 Jonny Bairstow

Jonny Bairstow had a splendid debut IPL season with SRH last year, and there's no reason why his form for the side shouldn't continue in this campaign. The Englishman has evolved into one of the best white-ball batsmen in the world, and seems to be in excellent nick on the international stage as well.

Bairstow will have his captain for company while opening the innings, and this partnership has elevated his game further in the past. The attacking opener is poised to better his tally from last year in IPL 2020, and should be one of the first names on any Dream11 team.


#1 David Warner

SRH captain David Warner, who led the franchise to their first-ever IPL title in 2016, will be keen on replicating the same with a similar core. The Australian has been tormented by Jofra Archer in the ongoing limited-overs leg against England, but his IPL form has never waned.

Warner has won the Orange Cap thrice, with the most recent one coming just last year. SRH players have won the award in the last three seasons, and the same could be set to continue in IPL 2020. The southpaw is the favourite among SRH players to finish the tournament with the most Dream11 points.
