Pat Cummins has been in decent form in the 14th IPL edition

Pat Cummins has been in decent form in the 2021 edition of the IPL for the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) side. The all-rounder averages 27.33 with the willow in hand and has scored his runs at a strike rate of 190.70. With the ball, the right arm pace has picked up 4 wickets in the 5 matches that he has played.

The Kolkata Knight Riders, on the other hand, have suffered a disastrous start to their IPL campaign this year. They have managed to muster just 2 points in the ongoing edition of the IPL, and are placed at 8th place in the points table.

In their previous match, the Eoin Morgan-led outfit was thrashed by the Rajasthan Royals (RR) side. The Kolkata side posted a total of just 133/9 on the board, and the Sanju Samson-led Rajasthan side chased it down with 6 wickets and 7 balls to spare.

Pat Cummins and the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will next be seen in action on 26th April 2021 when they take on the KL Rahul-led Punjab Kings (PBKS).
