Jonny Bairstow has hinted that he might be leaving Sunrisers Hyderabad; therefore, he will be going into the mega auction which is due for 2022. The England batter played a key role with David Warner at the top, with Warner falling out of favour, it seems the other opener is also not too keen. Earlier reports have started to emerge that Kane Williamson will be the only player that is going to be retained by SRH. A tiff with Warner has made sure that the management may not retain one of the best in business.

Bairtsow has replied to SRH post on Instagram where the franchise had acknowledged the contribution of the players since its inception in 2013. “We thank the players for their contribution to SRH over the years. This is not a goodbye, as we hope to welcome back some Risers in the auction,” SRH wrote to which he replied: “Thank you all for your support! Hopefully at some point our paths cross again in the future!”
