David Warner has failed to make an impact on the level expected of him, after his heroic deeds in previous years. An essential match against the Rajasthan Royals will provide the perfect motivation.

Players to consider

His compatriot Jofra Archer has also been an excellent interpreter with both the bat and the ball. Archer’s huge sixes and sublime performances on the ball are sure to ensure the limelight. David Warner, Jonny Bairstow and Rashid Khan will be the cricketers to watch out for at SRH camp.
