‘Not Sure Yet’: Bailey Updates On Cummins Participation In Champions Trophy

By IANS News January 09, 2025 • 10:58 AM View: 721

ICC Champions Trophy: Australia's chairman of selectors, George Bailey, has provided an update on the fitness of Pat Cummins, raising concerns over the Australian skipper's availability for the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy.

Cummins, who participated in all five Tests of the recently concluded Border-Gavaskar Trophy, is set to undergo scans on an ankle issue he managed throughout the summer.

Cummins has not been included for the upcoming tour of Sri Lanka, as the fast bowler is on paternity leave, awaiting the birth of his second child. However, his fitness ahead of the Champions Trophy, set to begin on February 19, remains a pressing concern for the Australian camp.
