In a surprising turn of events, Sunrisers Hyderabad will have Ishan Kishan leading the team in the absence of regular captain Pat Cummins. The Australian pacer is set to miss the first two weeks of the IPL as he focuses on regaining full bowling fitness. Head coach Daniel Vettori has expressed confidence in Cummins' overall fitness but emphasized the importance of not rushing his return to avoid any setbacks. Ishan Kishan, known for his dynamic leadership and impressive form on the field, has been entrusted with the responsibility of captaining the team in Cummins' absence. Vettori's backing of Kishan highlights the young player's capability to lead the team effectively and maintain a positive team environment. With Kishan at the helm, Sunrisers Hyderabad is gearing up to face the challenges of the tournament with enthusiasm and determination.
