SRH- (Source:@Johns/X.com)
IPL 2025 is less than a week away with RCB taking on KKR in the opening match on March 22 at the Eden Gardens. All teams are looking solid with great bench strength.
Talking about Sunrisers Hyderabad, they have great Indian and overseas talent in the squad. In the past few years, besides having a great bench strength, the teams that have utilised the impact player rule well have found success. Meanwhile, this article will shed light on SRH and three players who can be their potential impact player rule option.
Impact Player Options For SRH
Firstly, let's look at SRH's strongest XI
Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Nitish Reddy, Heinrich Klaasen (WK), Abhinav Manohar, Wiaan Mulder, Pat Cummins (C), Mohammed Shami, Harshal Patel, Rahul Chahar
Let's Look At the Impact Player Option For SRH
1. Jaydev Unadkat
Jaydev Unadkat is a solid bowling option for SRH and would create a big impact. He featured for the Men in Orange in the previous seasons and can have done well for them with his variations.
In the bowling, Unadkat can form a lethal pair alongside Cummins, Shami, and Harshal Patel. With his off-cutters that worked for SRH in IPL 2024 then Jaydev can create a big impact. It is worth noting that Unadkat took 8 wickets in 11 innings in IPL 2024.

2. Simarjeet Singh
Another great impact player option for SRH is Simarjeet Singh. The former CSK star did well in the Delhi Premier League, where he displayed maturity as a seamer. It is worth noting that Simarjeet took 18 wickets in 10 innings in DPL, which featured four three-wicket hauls. The performance gave him confidence and helped him getting picked at IPL 2025 mega-auction.
While Singh might not be a regular for SRH in IPL 2025, he has the potential to be a great impact player for the Men in Organge.

However, his performance in Maharaja T20 2024 saw SRH spend 3.6 crores for the right-hand batter. Notably, Abhinav amassed 507 runs in 10 innings, averaging 84.50.
