Dale Steyn resigns as Sunrisers Hyderabad bowling coach, declares he won't be back for IPL 2025

The former South African pacer will be shifting to the franchise's other team in the SA20 competition, Sunrisers Eastern Cape. The team has been dominant in the competition, winning both editions so far. He will continue his cricketing journey with Sunrisers Eastern Cape.

“Cricket announcement. A big thank you to Sunrisers Hyderabad for my few years with them as bowling coach at the IPL, unfortunately, I won’t be returning for IPL 2025,” Steyn wrote on X.

“However, I will continue to work with Sunrisers Eastern Cape in the SA20 here in South Africa. Two time winners here in SA20, let’s try make it THREE in a row,” he added.

Steyn was not a part of SRH’s successful campaign in IPL last year as he made himself unavailable for the campaign in which the 2016 title winners and 2018 runner-up qualified for the final.

The former New Zealand bowler James Franklin had filled in for the former South African pacer.
