Big blow to Sunrisers Hyderabad! This key player might delay his IPL start due to injury

Big worry for Sunrisers Hyderabad as their key player Kane Williamson may delay his Indian Premier League season because of injury on his shoulder. Kane Williamson was captain of the franchise last year and led his team to IPL finals. Kane took the responsibility after Australian cricketer David Warner was banned from international cricket for tampering with ball.

Williamson may delay his departure for the Indian Premier League after he was injured in a Test match against Bangladesh. Williamson suffered a shoulder injury while fielding in Bangladesh’s first innings in the second Test in Wellington, which New Zealand won by an innings and 12 runs.

The dates for 2019 edition of Indian Premier League has been announced by the organisers. Defending champions Chennai Super Kings will play Virat Kohli-led Royal Challengers Bangalore in the opener on March 23 in Chennai’s Chepauk Stadium.

However, the dates announced are only for first seventeen matches, where each team will play a minimum of 4 matches each while Delhi and Bangalore will play five matches. Every team will play two away and two home matches with Delhi playing three home matches and Bangalore playing three away games.
