Cummins left for Australia at the end of SRH\u2019s last game. The Australian speedster could rejoin the team on April 17.This means he is set to miss three matches during this period – against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) on April 5, Punjab Kings (PBKS) on April 11, and Rajasthan Royals (RR) on April 13.Cummins had earlier indicated that he expects to be fit for the second half of the IPL if his recovery stays on track.“I’m still recovering from a back injury, but it’s good. I’m back bowling in the nets. The IPL is starting soon. I won’t make the start of that, but it shouldn’t be too long before I’m back out there playing,\u201d Cummins had said on the Business of Sports podcast before joining the SRH camp last month.“I’m back bowling. I’m bowling basically every third day at the moment. We’ve mapped out a plan to get me right by [the] middle of the tournament.”Sunrisers Hyderabad have played two matches in the tournament so far, winning one and losing one.They went down to Royal Challengers Bengaluru by six wickets in their opening game but bounced back strongly to defeat Kolkata Knight Riders by 65 runs.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
