Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Pat Cummins was fined INR 12 lakh by the BCCI for maintaining a slow over rate during their IPL 2026 match against Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium. This was SRH's first over-rate offence of the season. The team suffered a heavy 82-run defeat, being bowled out for 86 while chasing 169. The penalty follows similar disciplinary actions earlier in the season against SRH players and reflects ongoing enforcement of IPL's Code of Conduct.
