In the absence of Cummins, Ishan Kishan is commanding the team, while Abhishek Sharma has been made the vice-captain. But Pat Cummins is the full-time captain of the team, so there may be a change in the captaincy of Hyderabad against Rajasthan Royals. Pat Cummins can be seen captaining the team in place of Ishan Kishan. The return of Pat Cummins will prove to be a big boost for SRH. He is the most important bowler of the team.
Sunrisers Hyderabad has won 4 matches
Sunrisers Hyderabad has played a total of 7 matches in the absence of Cummins. During this period, the team has won 4 matches and faced defeat in 3 matches. SRH is at fourth place in the points table. The net run rate of the team is +0.820. That means it remains in the race for the playoffs and the team has a big chance to finish in the top-4. In such a situation, Cummins’ playing is a big good news for the team.
