Former India cricketer Kris Srikkanth ripped SunRisers Hyderabad for splurging ₹13 crore on Liam Livingstone while ignoring their bowling frailties. He questioned why SRH let go of Mohammed Shami without a proper replacement and asked, "Who'll bowl the 20 overs for them?" The former India opener said the franchise failed to fix last season's biggest weakness.
