Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) is one of the most popular franchises in the Indian Premier League (IPL).

While the credit for the on-field success goes to Pat Cummins and his troops, the off-field calmness is credited to their owner, Kavya Maran.

The SRH owner and the team have gone through a roller-coaster ride since winning the league in 2016 and they have also witnessed slump in their form prior to last season. While she always attends home games of the SRH side, never does she tries and take away the limelight from the players.
Former SRH and current RCB star, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, in an old interview stated that Kavya Maran doesn't interfere in on-field cricketing issues and understands the cruelty of this sport. He added that just like players, she gets disturbed when the team doesn't perform well, but she never questions anyone's integrity.
"She is the owner of the team and we understand that she has invested a lot in the team. Just like the players, the owner also gets mentally disturbed, but never has she directly or indirectly questioned a player or coach's integrity. Even when we don't perform, she always supports us and it feels good to be a part of the team," Bhuvi stated in an old interview.
