Star Australia batter David Warner on Tuesday claimed that the Sunrisers Hyderabad management did not provide him with any reason as to why he was removed from captaincy.

Warner was replaced by Kane Williamson as captain during the first half of the IPL-14. A struggling Warner was omitted from the playing XI in the last few matches when the lucrative T20 league resumed in the UAE. "With the utmost respect for the owners, Trevor Baylis, VVS Laxman, Tom Moody and Muttiah Muralitharan, when a decision gets made, it has to be a unanimous one. You don't know who the person is going for you and who isn't," Warner told India Today.

"The other disappointing thing for me was not being explained why I was dropped as captain. If you want to go along the lines of form, it is a difficult one because, I guess whatever you have done in the past would have some weight moving forward, you would think." Warner said being stripped off captaincy was "a tough pill to swallow" but he would want to move on.
