Australia's Pat Cummins will continue as the captain of Sunrisers Hyderabad for a third consecutive Indian Premier League (IPL) season, with the franchise confirming his role on Monday through a post on its official ‘X’ handle.

Though the announcement featured only Cummins’ photos and no formal statement, the message was unmistakable—SRH’s leadership remains in the hands of the Australian fast-bowling ace as they enter the 2026 season.
