A disappointed Sunrisers Hyderabad captain David Warner said he was proud of his team despite their failure to make the IPL 2020 final.

The 2016 champions lost to Delhi Capitals by 17 runs in the Qualifier 2 on Sunday which ended their run of four wins.

"First and foremost, no one gave us a chance at the start. Mumbai has a great team, Delhi as well, and RCB, but I'm proud to be where we are today," the Australian batsman said.

Warner then praised the key players for his team in this campaign.

"Natarajan is a find of this IPL, and he's been outstanding. Rashid has been amazing, and so has Manish Pandey at No. 3. From an all-round perspective, it's been great. I'd like to thank all our supporters at home," he said.

Warner, however, admitted that fielding let his team down in the tournament.

"The main thing is attitude on the field. You can't win if you don't take catches, so that, we'll have to do much better next time - that's what's let us down in this tournament - the attitude on the field," said the explosive opener from Australia.

Asked about the impact injuries to key players like Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Wriddhiman Saha had on the campaign, he said, "It has been difficult, but the rest of the players have been excellent in their roles to get us where we have gotten today."
