Sunrisers Hyderabad became the champion in IPL 2016 under the captaincy of David Warner. The last few seasons have been very disappointing for Sunrisers Hyderabad. Last season, under the captaincy of Aiden Markram, Sunrisers Hyderabad could win only 4 out of 14 matches, and finished at the bottom position in the points table.
Aiden Markram captained Sunrisers Eastern Cape in SA20 2024 this year and won the team title for the second consecutive time. But Aiden Markram is going to lose the captaincy in IPL. According to media reports, Sunrisers Hyderabad is going to appoint Pat Cummins as the captain.
Pat Cummins led Australia to win the ICC World Test Championship and ODI World Cup 2023 last year. Sunrisers Hyderabad management is ready to remove Aiden Markram from the captaincy, showing confidence in the leadership of Pat Cummins.
