Netizens react to SRH releasing Harry Brook ahead of IPL 2024 auction
The Indian Premier League (IPL) has always been a stage where cricketing talent from around the world converges, creating an electrifying atmosphere. With the anticipation building for the IPL 2024 player’s auction, franchises recently made big strategic decisions by releasing several prominent overseas players in the retention process.
Sunrisers Hyderabad’s bold move
One move that caught the eye of many was Sunrisers Hyderabad’s decision to release England’s rising star, Harry Brook. The decision has ignited a spectrum of reactions among cricket enthusiasts and netizens alike.
SRH’s investment in Harry Brook
It is worth mentioning that SRH made a significant investment in Brook during the IPL 2023 auction, securing his services for a whopping amount of 13.25 crores. The franchise showed confidence in the young English player, hoping he would add firepower to their batting lineup. However, despite an impressive century in his debut season, Brook’s overall performance fell short of expectations as the English batter managed just 190 runs in 11 matches at an average of 21.11.
Strategic shift in player composition
Brook’s subpar performance in the debut IPL season seemingly prompted the Hyderabad-based franchise to release him, signalling a strategic shift in their player composition and budget management for the upcoming season.

Reactions from cricket enthusiasts
As the news of Brook’s departure from SRH circulated across social media platforms, cricket fans from around the world shared a myriad of reactions. Some fans expressed disappointment, believing that the young Englishman had immense potential and could have been given another chance to prove his mettle. Others, however, saw the release as an opportunity for their favourite franchises to secure a promising player.
Here’s how netizens reacted:

Glad Harry Brook is released by SRH. Frees up a lot of money for the auction to get a genuine overseas all rounder.
Surprised Kartik Tyagi has been released. He's been doing well in domestic cricket.#IPLRetentions #IPL2024 #SRH pic.twitter.com/HKqiePClZ2

Retaining Agrwal at 8.75 n Samad at 4 is surprising. Both may not be in xi anyway. So either both cud b released in place of Brook or cud hav been released anyway.
