Vijayakanth Vyaskanth joins Hyderabad in place of injured Wanindu Hasaranga.
Sunrisers Hyderabad on Tuesday included Sri Lankan young leg spinner Vijayakanth Vyaskanth in the team in place of injured Wanindu Hasaranga in the current season of the Indian Premier League. 22-year-old Vijayakanth, who has played one T20 international for Sri Lanka, is a similar option to leg spinner Hasaranga. Vijaykant has joined Sunrisers at a base price of Rs 50 lakh. Last year, 2016 champion Sunrisers had bought Hasaranga for Rs 1.5 crore but due to pain in the heel of his left foot, he was out of the IPL this year.
