Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) signed Harsh Dubey as an injury replacement for Smaran Ravichandran for the remainder of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season.

He will join SRH for $35,000.

Dubey, who is an all-rounder and plays for Vidarbha in domestic cricket, has 127 wickets and 941 runs against his name from 16 T20s, 20 List A and 18 First-Class matches he has played.

Sunrisers Hyderabad currently sit ninth position on the IPL points table with six points from 10 matches, having secured three wins and suffered seven losses. They will next face Delhi Capitals at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Monday (May 5).

Stellar first-class career for Smaran

His arrival comes in place of Smaran Ravichandran, who was himself a replacement for Adam Zampa last month. Unfortunately, Smaran too has been ruled out due to injury, ending a short but promising stint with SRH.

The Vidarbha batter, regarded as one of India's most exciting young talents, has made a strong impression in domestic cricket.

In first-class cricket, Smaran averages 64.50 after seven matches, including a double century against Punjab. His white-ball credentials are equally impressive — he amassed 433 runs at an average of 72.16 in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, playing a match-winning knock of 101 in the final.
