That’s very sad news to hear about Pat Cummins’ mother passing away. It’s understandable that he would want to be with his family during this difficult time. It’s also a big loss for the Australian cricket team to be without their regular captain and star fast bowler for the upcoming ODI series against India.
Steve Smith has proven himself to be a capable leader in the past, and it’s likely that he will do a good job leading the team in Cummins’ absence. However, Cummins’ absence will definitely be felt in the team’s bowling attack, as he is one of the best fast bowlers in the world.
It will be interesting to see how both teams perform in the ODI series, especially after India’s convincing win in the Test series. Without Pat Cummins, Australia’s bowling attack will need to step up to the challenge of facing India’s strong batting lineup, which includes the likes of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and Shikhar Dhawan. It should make for an exciting series, and I’m looking forward to seeing how it unfolds.
It’s good news for the Australian team that David Warner is set to return for the ODI series against India. He is a top-quality opener and his presence at the top of the batting order will give the Australian team a boost.
Warner’s return will also help to fill the void left by Pat Cummins’ absence. While he is not a bowler, Warner is a senior player with a wealth of experience and can provide leadership and guidance to the team.
However, it’s important for the team to not put too much pressure on Warner, especially if he’s not fully recovered from his elbow injury. They should give him enough time to regain his form and confidence before expecting him to perform at his best.
Overall, it will be interesting to see how the Australian team fares in the absence of Pat Cummins and with the return of David Warner. The ODI series promises to be an exciting contest between two quality sides.
