NEW DELHI: In a big boost for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), their captain Pat Cummins came back to lead the side and opted to field first after winning the toss against Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur in IPL 2026 match on Saturday."We are going to have a bowl first. The wicket looks good, try and see what we have to chase down. I feel really fresh, it has been while, I have good preparation, body feels well. He's (Kishan) fantastic, four wins in the first 7 games, he played that SRH game - bold, fearless style of cricket. We know the pitch really well in Hyderabad. This is the first game here for both teams, it will be a challenge. I come in for Madushanka. Hinge comes in for Harsh," Cummins said at the toss.Meanwhile, RR skipper Riyan Parag said, "We were looking to do that (bowling first) as well. But last couple of seasons we have not done well chasing, no problems batting first. We know the wicket really well. We had our camp here. There might be dew but it won't be too much. Last year we fell short by a couple of overs, just want to put a collective 40 overs. The middle order has to step up and the others."Teams:Sunrisers Hyderabad (Playing XI): Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Heinrich Klaasen, Salil Arora(w), Aniket Verma, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Pat Cummins(c), Shivang Kumar, Sakib Hussain, Praful Hinge, Eshan MalingaRajasthan Royals (Playing XI): Yashasvi Jaiswal, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Dhruv Jurel(w), Riyan Parag(c), Shimron Hetmyer, Donovan Ferreira, Ravindra Jadeja, Jofra Archer, Tushar Deshpande, Nandre Burger, Brijesh Sharma
