Sunrisers Hyderabad’s star batsman TRVIS Head has been found to be corona positive, due to which he will not be available for the match against Lucknow Super Giants on Monday, May 19. This is the reason why today through this special article, we are going to tell you the names of those three players who can now be part of SRH’s playing XI instead of Travis Head.
Nitish Kumar Reddy
We have named Nitish Kumar Reddy at the top of this list, who did not play the previous match (Delhi Capitals) for Sunrisers Hyderabad. It can contribute both batting and bowling for 21 -year -old all -rounder SRH and has hit 173 runs in 9 innings in IPL 2025. Let us know that Nitish Reddy has a total of 25 IPL matches in the name of 476 runs and 3 wickets at an average of about 30. This young all -rounder has also played 5 Tests and 4 T20 matches for the country. In such a situation, there is no doubt that they can participate in the playing combination of Sunrisers by replacing Travis Head.
Kamindu Mendis
Our list also includes a Sri Lankan all -rounder Kamindu Mendis who was bought by SRH for a full 75 lakh rupees in the mega auction. Let us tell you that this 26 -year -old all -rounder has the ability to bowl with both hands and has taken 1970 runs and 19 wickets in 97 T20 matches. Apart from this, he has also played 12 Tests, 19 ODIs and 23 T20 matches for his country. In such a situation, they can be a good pick as a replica of Travis Head.
Harsh Dubey (Harsh Dubey,
The last player we have included in this special list is a young unaccoun Indian spinner. Yes, we are talking about 22 -year -old Harsh Dubey whom SRH has made a part of his squad as a replacement player.
Let us know that Harsh had done 97 wickets in 18 first class matches, 21 wickets in 20 list A and 9 wickets in 16 T20 matches. Indian Cricket Management has been so impressed by his domestic performance that Harsh has also been included in the India A squad going on England Tour. In such a situation, it will be quite interesting to see whether Harsh gets a chance to play in the IPL before England Tour.
