Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will be relieved to have their skipper Pat Cummins back in action. Cummins, who was ruled out of the ongoing Champions Trophy 2025 from the Australian set-up, was also speculated to miss the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. The pacer was managing an ankle injury during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The issue became a bit more intense during the Boxing Day Test in Melbourne.
“The ankle is all going strong, [have been] able to give it a good rest and then been building up slowly, which you don’t get to do when you play lots of cricket. It’s feeling as strong as it has for a fair while. Should be fine [for the IPL], that’s the plan. So have a few weeks of bowling, building back up and then hopefully don’t have to worry about it for a while,” Cummins said.
The 31-year-old explained the status of his injury.
He said, “It’s something that we’ve opted never to have surgery on or intervene too much, just a lot to rehab. Having this break meant that I could get a couple of cortisones and really rehab it well the last couple of weeks.”
