3 Sunrisers Hyderabad players who might be benched in IPL 2026

2. Krains Fuletra (Left-arm spinner)

Krains Fuletra was signed by the Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2026, after a successful stint with the team as a net bowler in 2025. The left-arm wrist spinner was picked up after his performances in the Saurashtra Pro T20 League, where he picked up 10 wickets in nine innings, at a respectable economy rate of seven. He has played two T20s for Saurashtra.

Ahead of Fuletra in the pecking order is Madhya Pradesh’s Shivang Kumar, another unorthodox bowler, who is also capable with the bat. Shivang has consistently featured for his state side of late, even picking up a fifer in the Vijay Hazare Trophy against Karnataka. Fuletra also finds his place under threat from leg-spinner Zeeshan Ansari, who has already made his debut for the franchise in 2025.
