Australia Banking On Cummins, Hazlewood And Starc For 2027 ODI WC Defence: McDonald
ODI World Cup: Australia head coach Andrew McDonald said the team is planning around Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood and Pat Cummins for their 2027 ODI World Cup title defence, despite the trio missing the upcoming 50-over tours of Pakistan and Bangladesh.
Cummins and Hazlewood will play the IPL 2026 playoffs for Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers Bengaluru respectively, while Starc will return home after Delhi Capitals campaign came to an end.
"I think people look at the immediate games and go, 'Well, why aren't they playing there?' But if you actually work back from 2027 and look at what we've got coming up, this is the last significant break that we get to invest into their bodies to set themselves up to get all the way through to 2027. We are planning for them to be there in 2027.
