SRH Welcomes New Bowler Amid Injury Setback

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India] - Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) has announced the signing of Dilshan Madushanka to fill the void left by Brydon Carse for the remainder of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 season.

The 30-year-old English fast bowler, Carse, has been sidelined for the current IPL season due to an injury.

Dilshan Madushanka, a left-arm medium pacer, has made his mark in international cricket, featuring in 1 Test, 28 ODIs, and 19 T20Is, accumulating a total of 70 wickets. He will join SRH for a fee of Rs 75 Lakh.

Previously, Madushanka was part of the Mumbai Indians (MI) in the IPL.

Currently, SRH is positioned fourth in the points table, having secured two victories out of five matches. Their next challenge will be against Chennai Super Kings at home on Saturday.

The team, led by Ishan Kishan, is coming off a strong performance, having defeated the Rajasthan Royals by 57 runs, largely due to the impressive debut of young uncapped bowlers, Praful Hinge and Sakib Hussain.

The duo combined to take eight wickets, effectively dismantling the RR batting lineup during their chase of 217 runs.

In his debut match, the 24-year-old Hinge claimed four wickets and was awarded Player of the Match. He achieved remarkable figures of 34/4, taking key wickets in his first over.

Sakib Hussain also made a significant impact, taking the crucial wicket of Yashasvi Jaiswal in his opening over and finishing with figures of 24/4.
