Sunrisers Hyderabad: franchise history

Sunrisers Hyderabad is the Hyderabad-based Indian Premier League franchise that entered the competition in 2013 after a change in ownership and identity. ESPNcricinfo reported in December 2012 that Sun TV Network had taken over the Hyderabad franchise after the Deccan Chargers were terminated and that the replacement team would be called Sunrisers. The earlier Hyderabad side, therefore, was the Deccan Chargers; Sunrisers should be treated as the successor franchise for IPL profile purposes, not as the same name.

The new team’s early seasons established it as a regular competitor, but its defining breakthrough came in 2016. Sunrisers reached their first IPL final that year and defeated Royal Challengers Bangalore by eight runs at Bengaluru’s M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. The result delivered the franchise’s first—and, on the evidence reviewed here, only—IPL championship. The final was a high-scoring match: Sunrisers made 208 for seven, then held RCB to 200 for seven. The win also gives the club a clear title year of 2016 rather than a claim based on a later finalist appearance.

Sunrisers returned to the final in 2018, two seasons after their first championship. Chennai Super Kings won that match by eight wickets in Mumbai, leaving Hyderabad runners-up. The 2018 appearance nonetheless marked the team’s second final in three seasons and confirmed that the 2016 title was part of a sustained period of competitiveness rather than an isolated playoff run.

The franchise reached another final in 2024. In Chennai, Kolkata Knight Riders bowled Sunrisers out for 113 and chased the target in 10.3 overs, winning by eight wickets with 57 balls remaining. That defeat made 2024 a second-place finish, not a second title. Across the documented finals, Sunrisers’ record is one championship (2016) and two runner-up finishes (2018 and 2024). This profile deliberately avoids attaching current players, captains, or a future roster to the historical account: those details can change between seasons, and no official IPL 2027 squad announcement was located by the stated cutoff.

The official IPL team page was checked, but its accessible response only displayed a loading placeholder; the club’s public homepage likewise exposed only its logo in the retrieved page. No venue is asserted here because the accessible official material did not provide a stable, directly readable venue record.

Recent seasons: 2024–2026

  • 2024 — Sunrisers Hyderabad reached the IPL 2024 final, where Kolkata Knight Riders defeated them and won the title; SRH therefore finished as runners-up.
  • 2025 — The IPL’s 16 May 2025 playoff-qualification update listed Sunrisers Hyderabad among the teams eliminated from playoff contention, confirming a non-playoff season.
  • 2026 — SRH qualified for the 2026 playoffs, as confirmed in the official report of their match against Chennai Super Kings; they were then eliminated by Rajasthan Royals in the Eliminator.

Sunrisers Hyderabad squad

2026 season reference

Officially documented 2026 players (partial, not a full squad): checked against the dated team/league source (15 Nov 2025–18 Apr 2026 (15 official pre-auction retentions and dated replacement notices)). Partial 2026 reference: 16 officially documented names, not a complete final-season squad. The official release named 15 retained players before the auction; subsequent official notices replaced Brydon Carse and David Payne. A complete season-specific list of auction additions was not verified. This is not a 2027 squad. Only existing matching 4xSports player profiles are linked; player statistics here are not used as source evidence.
