Banned Australian cricketer David Warner, who is currently serving one-year ban from domestic Australian cricket and international cricket over ball-tampering scandal, has been retained by SunRisers Hyderabad for IPL 2019. Notably, Warner and Steve Smith were barred from playing in the Indian Premier League last season despite being eligible to participate. SRH have retained 17 players from last year's squad.
