The franchise confirmed the move on Friday after Mavi was ruled out with a groin problem.<\/p>\n<h3>Replacement confirmed<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Sunrisers Hyderabad signed RS Ambrish as a mid-season replacement for IPL 2026.<\/li>\n<li>Ambrish comes in after Shivam Mavi was ruled out due to a groin injury.<\/li>\n<li>Mavi is a right-arm medium pacer.<\/li>\n<li>The deal is for the remainder of the IPL 2026 season.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In the official communication, it was noted that Mavi has been forced to miss the ongoing campaign because of the groin injury. With the injury update prompting immediate action, SRH have opted to add Ambrish to keep their bowling options covered.<\/p>\n<h3>Rising star from India\u2019s Under-19 run<\/h3>\n<p>At 18 years old, Ambrish arrives with momentum from India\u2019s Under-19 success at the ICC Under-19 World Cup 2026 earlier this year. The Chennai-born talent was among the key performers, ending the tournament as India\u2019s joint-leading wicket-taker with 11 wickets.<\/p>\n<p>SRH will likely value his skill set for T20 cricket\u2019s demands. Ambrish bowls right-arm medium pace and can also bat left-handed, giving him the kind of all-round flexibility that helps teams manage overs, match-ups, and team balance.<\/p>\n<h3>Step-by-step through domestic cricket<\/h3>\n<p>Though he is still early in his professional career, Ambrish has already tasted senior domestic action. He made his first-class debut for Tamil Nadu in October 2025 against Jharkhand, and has since appeared in two matches.<\/p>\n<p>In that short stretch, he has taken two wickets and contributed 43 runs in first-class outings, offering early signs of the two-dimensional threat he could bring at franchise level.<\/p>\n<h3>What this chance could mean<\/h3>\n<p>Ambrish will join Sunrisers Hyderabad with a base price of Rs 30 lakh. For a player of his age, the IPL can be the fastest route to converting youth success into consistent performances against top international and domestic T20 talent.<\/p>\n<p>With the tournament often serving as a launchpad for young prospects, SRH\u2019s mid-season call gives Ambrish a clear platform to build on his Under-19 impact and stake a claim in the senior ranks for the rest of IPL 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunrisers Hyderabad have moved quickly to address a squad concern, bringing in teenage all-rounder RS Ambrish as a mid-season replacement for
