Kane Williamson’s form has taken a dip following the elbow injury. Last season he could only score 216 runs from 13 matches. During the IPL 2023 auction, Williamson registered himself in the 2 crore bracket. It is most unlikely that Williamson will get any other suitors due to his form and elbow injury struggles. In that scenario, SRH will have the opportunity to sign him for much lesser price (max 7-8 crores) rather than retaining him for 14 crores.
