In his sole appearance during the 2014 season against the Chennai Super Kings, Cummins bowled four overs, conceding 29 runs, including a maiden, and claimed the wicket of Dwayne Smith.

Following that match, Cummins spent much of the season on the bench, carrying drinks and bats for his teammates and cheering from the dugout. Despite limited playtime, he was part of KKR's title-winning campaign in 2014.

Kolkata Knight Riders beat Sunrisers Hyderabad to lift IPL 2024 title

Kolkata Knight Riders dismantled Sunrisers Hyderabad, bowling them out for 113 runs to secure an eight-wicket victory and their third IPL title.

Mitchell Starc, a $2.9 million signing, rattled Hyderabad’s top order with 2-14, contributing significantly to the lowest total in IPL finals history.

Venkatesh Iyer led Kolkata to victory with an unbeaten 52 off 26 balls, supported by Rahmanullah Gurbaz's 39 off 32.

Kolkata captain Shreyas Iyer praised his team's comprehensive performance and cumulative effort throughout the flawless season.

Kolkata, previously winning titles in 2012 and 2014, dominated this season by topping the league stage with nine wins from 14 games.

Starc and Cummins will now join Australia’s squad for the Twenty20 World Cup, starting with the USA vs Canada match in Dallas.

Hyderabad's early collapse to 47-4 in the first seven overs was driven by impeccable bowling from Starc, Harshit Rana, and Vaibhav Arora.

Despite setting IPL batting records this season, Hyderabad were bowled out for their lowest total at a venue where Kolkata had memorable victories.

After KKR's title win in 2014, a video surfaced on social media, showing Cummins dancing to KKR's anthem 'Korbo Lorbo Jeetbo Re'.

And after Sunday's defeat as Sunrisers Hyderabad skipper, the old Cummins video resurfaced on social media.
