IPL 2026 was amazing for Ishan Kishan and now he will be seen playing for Team India in the ODI series against Afghanistan. Meanwhile, news is coming that Ishan Kishan is going to get captaincy in IPL next year. In IPL 2026, Ishan Kishan captained Sunrisers Hyderabad in some matches. The question is, why is Ishan Kishan going to become the full-time captain of the team? Because Pat Cummins’s performance as captain has been good. Actually, there are reports that Pat Cummins may not be able to play in the next season of IPL and the reason for this is his workload.
Pat Cummins gave the signal
pat cummins Said during an event that he will give priority to the Ashes series and ODI World Cup next year and because of this he can also take rest from franchise cricket. Australian cricketers often take a break from T20 franchise cricket for international cricket. Cummins said in an event, ‘Next year something will have to be given up, but this Test and ODI World Cup will definitely not happen. I will take a decision regarding this at that time. Things may also change. I have some injuries and I can’t decide anything right now. The priority for me will always be Test matches and ODI World Cup. If I play all over India, I will have to take a break before the Ashes series.
Ishan Kishan will be given the captaincy!
If Pat Cummins does not play, it will be a big blow for Sunrisers Hyderabad. However, the good thing is that this team has their option. Ishan Kishan also did good captaincy in IPL 2026 and he also performed well with the bat. This player led the team in 8 matches in IPL 2026, they won 5 matches and lost 3. Ishan Kishan also scored 312 runs in these 8 matches. A total of 602 runs were scored from his bat in IPL.
Pat Cummins’s performance was poor
Pat Cummins’ performance in IPL 2026 was average. This player was able to take only 8 wickets in 8 matches and his economy rate was more than 11 runs per over. Pat Cummins gave away 64 runs in the eliminator match against Rajasthan Royals, due to which his team lost and was out of the IPL. Now it seems that Ishan Kishan will be the full time captain of Sunrisers Hyderabad from the next season.
