The return of Pat Cummins has been a major boost for SRH as they look to cement their place in the top four this season. However, it has been another overseas bowler who has led the bowling attack in the Australian’s absence. Eshan Malinga is currently SRH’s leading wicket-taker with 15 wickets from 10 matches. He has partnered well with Sakib Hussain, who has nine scalps to his name and is enjoying a wonderful debut campaign. 


SRH’s predicted playing XI vs PBKS in Match 49, IPL 2026:

Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Ishan Kishan (WK), Heinrich Klaasen, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Salil Arora, Aniket Verma, Pat Cummins (C), Shivang Kumar, Harshal Patel, Sakib Hussain

Impact Player: Eshan Malinga
