Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) has signed RS Ambrish, an allrounder who played a pivotal role in India’s Under-19 World Cup win, as a replacement for Shivam Mavi, who is out for the remainder of IPL 2026 due to a groin injury. Ambrish joins the team for ₹30 lakh (approximately $36,000 USD), having previously been India's highest wicket-taker in the tournament with 11 wickets, including three in the final against England. SRH has faced multiple injury challenges in their fast-bowling lineup this season, with captain Pat Cummins and others missing games due to injuries. Despite these setbacks, SRH has shown resilience, winning their last five matches and currently sitting third on the IPL points table with 12 points from nine games. They are set to face the Kolkata Knight Riders in their next match on May 3.
