SRH are currently placed in the fourth position of the points table. The Orange Army is set to play the Rajasthan Royals tomorrow at the Sawai Man Singh Stadium, Jaipur. It is going to be a reverse fixture, as a few weeks back, RR were demolished by the SRH bowlers at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium, Hyderabad.
Cummins captioned the post, "Been a long time coming, stinging to get back into it tomorrow." This means he is fit to play and is ready to go against the Rajasthan Royals tomorrow. Now, the big question arises is whether he will lead the side or not. Ishan Kishan has led the side well in the former’s absence.

Why did Cummins miss first half of IPL 2026?
Pat Cummins has been suffering from a back injury since last year and nearly missed the whole season as he only played a single test match last year, which was against England, and did not even participate in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 as well. He also did not feature in the T20 World Cup 2026.
Ishan Kishan to continue as captain?
Speaking on JioHotstar, Harbhajan said SRH should resist the temptation to provide the capttaincy to Cummins immediately. “Ishan Kishan should continue as Sunrisers Hyderabad captain even if Pat Cummins returns. It is a debatable call, but if the team has backed a young leader, they should stick with him,” Harbhajan said.
