Warner picked it as his favourite moment and uploaded a picture of the team celebrating the title. SRH beat Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) by eight runs to end their trophy drought.

In normal circumstances, Warner would currently be leading SRH in the 13th edition of the league but due to the coronavirus pandemic, the start of the tournament was pushed back to April 15 from March 29.
India is currently on a 21-day lockdown till April 15 and hosting a tournament in such circumstances would be difficult for the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
“IPL will not happen this year. It will now happen next year. We all know how the situation is at the moment in the country and no one will take any risk,” a BCCI source was quoted as saying by Indian Express.

“One can’t have social distancing in the stadium. It’s better to play IPL next year. Also, no mega auction will take place. We will inform the franchises once we get final confirmation from the Indian government, the same season can continue next season,” he added.
