NEW DELHI (Reuters) - David Warner is "obviously shocked" after being removed as Sunrisers Hyderabad captain and axed from the team but understands what prompted the move, the struggling Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise said.

The Australian was stripped of captaincy on Saturday and was dropped from Sunday's match against Rajasthan Royals which Hyderabad lost by 55 runs under new captain Kane Williamson.
