In the IPL Auction 2024, the Hyderabad franchise shocked the IPL tables by bidding 24 crores on Pat Cummins and acquiring him as the skipper for this IPL season. Till now, in the ongoing IPL season, he’s been doing his job perfectly as skipper in three matches, although the SRH team has lost two games.
But under his captaincy, the team has played amazing cricket, showing batting prowess. In one game against the KKR team, they posted the highest IPL total of 277 runs in 20 overs.

Cummins in the IPL has always been a curious case. Almost every time franchises showed interest in this star pacer and paid him a huge amount of money in all the previously held seasons.
However, most of the time, he was not available due to injury or personal reasons.
Although he initially performed well for the KKR, there is now a lot of hope and expectations from him this season as the SRH skipper.
So it will be interesting to see if he is able to turn around the SRH franchise’s fortunes, just like he did for Australia at the international level.
