\u201cI feel excited. I feel like I've watched too much cricket lately without playing, so I'm itching to get out there. Yeah, stinging to get out there,\u201d Cummins said in a video released by SRH on x.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Cummins also had special praise for stand-in captain Ishan Kishan, who has led the side in his absence in the opening seven matches.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"Boys have been on fire. It's been great to watch, so hopefully I can add something. I think for the most part, Ishan was good. I think when it comes to tosses, he was absolutely terrible. But outside of that, he was excellent. You know, he's been brewing, lots of energy, really good tactical moves from, you know, looking from the outside in,\u201d he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cHe's obviously a great thinker of the game. And alongside, you know, Abhishek out there as well, they've been running it, and it looks pretty smooth. So yeah, when I'm out there, I'm sure I'll be leaning on those guys as well. But yeah, well done, Ishan, he's been awesome,\u201d he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Cummins also spoke about the challenges that pacers face in the IPL and how well the SRH young bowling attack has performed so far.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cIPL is a very tough place for fast bowlers, but I thought, I think all our guys have been exceptional. You know, a few of the young guys have come in,\u201d he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cI think it's, well, I've certainly found it really hard to find the pace of IPL. Those guys look like they've, you know, hit it straight away. They've got the feel of the game. They're sequencing their variations brilliantly so far. So, you know, they already look like the complete players. It's not going to happen perfectly every game, but they've had a great start,\u201d he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
