The official YouTube channel of the Indian Premier League franchise Sunrisers Hyderabad got hacked on Saturday, March 18 as several videos of games and software download tutorials can be seen on their channel. The last video uploaded by the franchise was of their jersey launch for the upcoming IPL 2023 uploaded on Thursday, March 16, 2023.

Following that, a total of 29 videos have been uploaded on their channel, including tutorials for downloading the game Fortnite along with its cheats and codes. There are more videos with download links of softwares like CorelDraw, Canva, Adobe Premiere and others.

The SRH fans have been baffled by the recent activities on their franchise’s official YouTube channel and are hoping for the franchise to gain control of it again soon.

SRH will kick off their IPL campaign against Rajasthan Royals on Sunday, April 2 at their home ground Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad. At the mini-auction held in December 2022 for the 16th edition of the IPL, they acquired the services of the swashbuckling youngster Harry Brook for a whopping INR 13.25 crore.

Brook is elated to be part of the squad and is excited to meet the legendary coaching staff of Brian Lara, Dale Steyn and Muttiah Muralitharan.

IPL is the best franchise competition in the world: Harry Brook

“It’s the best franchise competition in the world. Everyone wants to play in it. There are a lot of good players there, and hopefully, I get some opportunities to express how I’m playing at the minute – and show the world I’m capable of scoring runs anywhere,” Brook was quoted as saying by ESPNcricinfo.

“Brian Lara is a legend of the game… I used to love watching him when I was younger,” he said.

For the upcoming edition of the league, Aiden Markram will lead the Hyderbad-based franchise. SRH have also roped in Mayank Agarwal for INR 8.25 crore and Heinrich Klaasen for INR 5.25 crore to strengthen their batting. To strengthen their bowling department they have grabbed hold of international stars like Akeal Hosein (INR 1 crore) and Adil Rashid (INR 2 crore).
