David Warner, who was axed as Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) captain on Saturday, has now been dropped from the team's playing XI versus Rajasthan Royals on Sunday. SRH director of cricket Tom Moody confirmed about the development ahead of the match. Jonny Bairstow and newly-appointed captain Kane Williamson will be the two specialist overseas batsmen for SRH in the match. "David Warner will no be playing in this particular game. It's purely a decision based on combinations. We have sort of come to a conclusion that at this stage that 2 overseas batsmen, an all-rounder and Rashid Khan is our best combination. We looked it very closely. Obviously, Bairstow's form and Kane Willaimson's form is at a great height and we are very thrilled on the way they are playing. We had to make a hard call and someone had to miss out and unfortunately David Warner at this occasion," Tom Moody said.
