In the Indian Premier League 2025, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) is set to play their first match against Rajasthan Royals. But in this match, an important player of the team will not be part of the playing-11. The Maharathi has been a place in the playing-11 continuously, but it will be about 40 months later that the Orange Army will have to land on the ground without a shock. SRH has to play this match on his own homeground, of course fans will definitely miss this player on the field.

SRH will land without this player

Last year's runner -up team Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) is set to face Rajasthan in its first match. SRH's playing-11 looks very dangerous, but the team lacks a player and that player is Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Without Bhuvi, the Orange Army is going to play matches in its homeground. This will happen after about 40 months when Bhuvi is not part of the playing-11 and the team landed on the field. The last time this happened in the year 2021.

Why Orange Army landed without Bhubaneswar

Bhubaneswar Kumar Sunrisers is not part of Hyderabad (SRH) in IPL 2025. He will be seen playing for Royal Challengers Bangalore this time. However, surprisingly, RCB has won its first match against KKR in IPL 2025, but Bhubaneswar did not find a place in this playing-11. While Bhuvi has been a consistent part of the Orange Army. He was last dropped in the match against Mumbai Indians on 8 October 2021 at Sunrisers' squad, SRH lost in that match. Now 1261 days later Sunrisers will land without Bhuvi.

Bhuvi will remember fans, 10 years of franchise

Bhuvneshwar Kumar has been a part of Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) for 10 consecutive years. The fans of the Orange Army are going to miss the player at their home ground. The franchise did not retain Bhuvneshwar Kumar for IPL 2025. Also, when the player was bid, the Royal Challengers Bangalore won and added them to Rs 10.75 crore. Bhuvi has so far taken 181 wickets in 176 matches in the IPL. In which 147 wicket players have won for Sunrisers Hyderabad.
