Sunrisers Hyderabad made their IPL debut replacing Deccan Chargers in 2013 Indian Premier League. Kumar Sangakkara was initially appointed as the captain of the Sunrisers Hyderabad but was replaced by Cameron White after nine matches as the latter captained the team for the remaining 7 matches and the Eliminator match in the Playoffs. The team was coached by Tom Moody with Waqar Younis as their bowling coach while V. V. S. Laxman and Kris Srikkanth were appointed as the mentors. The team played all their home games at home in Hyderabad.

In their inaugural season, Sunrisers started their campaign against Pune Warriors India on 5 April 2013 at Hyderabad on a winning note and the team reached the playoffs but were eliminated after losing the eliminator match against Rajasthan Royals by 4 wickets at Feroz Shah Kotla in Delhi on 22 May 2013. They got selected for 2013 Champions League Twenty20 but got knocked out in the group stages.

Background

The Sun TV Network won the bid for a new franchise based in Hyderabad with ₹850.5 million (US$10 million) per year for a five-year deal, a week after the Deccan Chargers were terminated due to prolonged financial issues. The team was named as the Sunrisers Hyderabad which replaced the Chargers and debuted in the 2013 season. The team logo was unveiled on 20 December 2012, along with the announcement that the team's management would be led by Kris Srikkanth, Tom Moody and V. V. S. Laxman. Waqar Younis and Simon Helmot later joined the coaching staff as bowling coach and assistant coach respectively. The team jersey was unveiled on 8 March 2013, and the team anthem composed by G. V. Prakash Kumar was released on 12 March 2013.

Players acquisition

The players auction for the 2013 Indian Premier League held on 3 February 2013 at Chennai. All nine franchises had participated in the auction. SRH has retained 20 players from Deccan Chargers and released 13 players in November 2012. This leaves Sunrisers with Salary cap remaining of $7mn and have 14 Indian and 6 Overseas players. Sunrisers later added 11 players to the team including 6 capped players during IPL-2013 auction.

Their most expensive buy in their maiden IPL auction came in with the purchase of Sri-Lankan all-rounder Thisara Perera at a whooping price of $675,000. They also bagged West-Indian all-rounder Darren Sammy for $425,000 to improve their options for the squad. Towards the end, they picked up Sudeep Tyagi, their only Indian purchase at the base price of $100,000.

Post auction, Sunrisers signed Hanuma Vihari, Hyderabad local boy and member of the India Under-19 cricket team that won the 2012 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup in Australia.
