One-time IPL champions SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) have named their retained players before the mega auction. 

Starting the IPL journey in the 2013 edition, SRH have impressed with their performances. They won the IPL 2016 after beating Royal Challengers Bangalore in the final. They also finished as the runners-up two times, including the last season. 

While Chennai Super Kings beat the SRH in the IPL 2018 final, Kolkata Knight Riders defeated them in the IPL 2024 final. After finishing the previous three seasons in the league stage, captain Pat Cummins’ record-value joining opened their luck in the last season. Although they finished as the runners-up, cricket fans heavily enjoyed their aggressive batting attitude.
