England whirlwind limited overs batsman Alex Hales has been named as David Warner's replacement by Sunrisers Hyderabad.
David Warner was banned from IPL 2018 by the BCCI over his role in the ball-tampering scandal.
Warner was earlier retained by SRH, but they get a decent bite at the cherry with the recruitment of Hales.
Hales is a regular in the England limited overs squad.
