Amidst the widespread of coronavirus, the Indian government has restricted visa applications for travelling to the country. The government has gone on to say that only visas that support diplomatic or academic activities till mid-April will be accepted. Following that, reports have suggested that Sunrisers Hyderabad’s skipper David Warner’s visa has been rejected amidst all the chaos. At this point, however, it is unsure whether because of the visa restriction in play or because of other reasons. 

Warner was recently announced as the skipper of Sunrisers for the 13th season of the cash rich league.He couldn’t play the lucrative league in 2018, having faced a ban from Cricket Australia due to the ball-tampering saga. Warner returned in 2019 and finished as the competition’s leading run-getter with 692 runs in 11 fixtures. Earlier, Trevor Bayliss was named as their new coach and Brad Haddin joined him as the assistant coach.
