Code Cricket, in a deleted X post, alleged that Cummins called out the unfair advantage given to India by the ICC in the Champions Trophy and termed the tournament 'farce', saying that teams should not be able to pick and choose where they want to play their matches.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The fast bowler, who is not part of the tournament due to ankle injury, took to social media on Tuesday to slam the Australian digital sports platform for fabricating his words. \"I have definitely never said this @codecricketau,\" Cummins posted on X.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The entire episode started after Code Cricket published a post on Tuesday alleging that Cummins had slammed the ICC for allowing India to play all their matches at a single venue while other teams had to travel between Pakistan and Dubai. The publication claimed Cummins was unhappy with India getting to \u201cpick and choose\u201d where they played.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
But Cummins, in an actual interview with Yahoo Australia, said, \u201cI think it's good in that the tournament can go on, but obviously, it does give them (India) a huge advantage playing on the same ground. They already look very strong, and they've got that obvious benefit of playing all their games there.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n
