One of the top batsmen of the tournament:-

That’s why we thought that if something is going bad then why to change something that is going right for it.”
Williamson scored nine runs in 17 balls during their 54-run loss against Kolkata Knight Riders on Saturday.
Moody (SRH coach Tom Moody) said, “Given the level of Kane, we believe in him, there is no doubt about his world-class ability.
That’s why we didn’t take this step because we saw in the tournament where the batsmen are doing well.”
Markram at number four and Nicholas at number five:-
