Sunrisers Hyderabad head coach Daniel Vettori has brushed aside the recent buzz surrounding bat size checks in the ongoing IPL 2025, asserting that the process doesn’t significantly affect the game.

The former New Zealand spinner, speaking ahead of SRH’s upcoming fixture against Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium, even joked that he wished such measures had been in place during his playing days. “I wish they`d checked the bats when I was playing,” Vettori quipped during the pre-match press conference.
