Australian World Cup-winning captain, as their new leader for the upcoming IPL season. Cummins, who was acquired for a record Rs 20.5 crore in the 2023 auction, replaces Aiden Markram after SRH's disappointing performance last year.
As a franchise, SRH have looked completely disjointed over the last few seasons. No wonder that they have been regularly finishing in the bottom half of the IPL points table. Hyderabad were crowned IPL champions in 2016 and finished runners-up in 2018, but those impressive performances seem like a distant memory.
SRH finished eighth in the 2021 and 2022 IPL seasons and last in 2023. The shocking performances have coincided with troubles within the team. David Warner was replaced as captain midway through the 2021 season after a string of losses and his poor form.
Kane Williamson replaced him as leader for the rest of the season, but there was not much change in SRH’s fortunes. They just didn’t look like a team that was playing to win.
