How much will Pat Cummins earn per delivery in IPL 2024?

Pat Cummins was acquired for INR 20.50 crores at the IPL 2024 auction.

Pat Cummins made history in the Indian Premier League (IPL) auction history when he became the first player ever to receive a bid of more than Rs 20 crores at the IPL 2024 auction. Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) paid a final bid of INR 20.50 crores for Pat Cummins at the auction and later named him captain of the franchise.

However, Pat Cummins’ record as the most expensive player bought ever in IPL auction stood for just a few minutes as his Australian teammate and fellow pacer Mitchell Starc was paid Rs 24.75 crores by Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the IPL 2024 auction, breaking Cummins’ record.

Pat Cummins was recently named the captain of the SRH team, replacing Aiden Markram, who led the side last year, but finished 10 in the points table.

SRH punted on Pat Cummins’ brilliant year in 2023, when he retained the Ashes in England, won the ICC World Test Championship final against India, and then defeated India in the final of the ICC World Cup in Ahmedabad as Australia captain.
