Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) has stated officially that assistant coach Simon Katich has been departed from the team. The SRH franchise reported that Katich was uncertain due to bio-security concerns and family responsibilities. In this article, we have mentioned Who is the SRH Assistant Coach.
Simon Helmot has been appointed by SRH to replace Katich. Helmot, 50, was a member of the Sunrisers’ coaching panel from 2012 – 2019. He recently appeared as head coach for the Trinbago Knight Riders in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL).

Earlier, SRH also split-ways with Trevor Bayliss & Brad Haddin
Moody as well as other officials of the support panel, notably Brian Lara, Muttiah Muralitharan, & Hemang Badani, were also represented during the recently concluded IPL 2022 mega auction process in Bengaluru. The franchise officials were regularly observed discussing on the phone call during the auction process, and it was eventually revealed that the voice on the receiving end was Kane Williamson, who would lead the Hyderabad team.
SRH, which concluded with dismal outings in the IPL 2021 following 5 years to make the Playoffs, has indeed been troubled by management uncertainty. The year before, David Warner had a big and unpleasant dispute with the SRH franchise, which resulted in his dismissal from the league’s midseason. At the end of the season, the team also decided to split ways with coach Trevor Bayliss and assistant coach Brad Haddin.
