Hyderabad played brilliantly in the league stage of IPL 2024. For them, openers Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head batted aggressively and this was the reason that their team scored 250 runs twice this season. Not only this, under the captaincy of Cummins, the team made the highest score in the history of IPL this season. This team also finished its campaign at second place in the points table. In such a situation, Pathan has given a big statement during a conversation on Star Sports.
He said, “Pat Cummins has bowled with the new ball in many matches this season. He has also bowled in the middle overs and the 19th and 20th overs. He has played new roles for his team this season. He does not run away from responsibilities and due to this behavior he has been able to inspire other teammates as well. Cummins has used his experience to get the best performance from his players this season. He has been able to inspire the young players of his team and the players are considering him as their leader. For me, Cummins is the best captain of this season.”
If we look at Cummins' performance this season, he has bowled at different times. Cummins has bowled in every phase of the game as per the need and has consistently performed well for his team. The fast bowler has played a total of 15 matches this season so far, in which he has taken 17 wickets. Not only this, he has also made important contributions in batting on many occasions and scored important runs.
