Starc Backs 'ultra Positive' Cummins To Perform In Ashes Whether 'he Bowls Three Warm-up Balls And First Over Of The Game'
New Delhi: Veteran Australian pacer Mitchel Starc has said that captain Pat Cummins remains optimistic about making a significant impact in the Ashes, as he is able to find peak form and fitness quickly despite not being cleared to resume bowling.
Cummins is set to miss the Ashes series opener in Perth on November 21 as he recovers from a lower back problem. However, Starc revealed that Cummins has been in attendance at recent training sessions in Sydney, as he maintains his core fitness leading into the summer.
"He's pretty level. He’s been floating around a little bit. Pat is still in his program and has obviously got a few sets of eyes on him in his return. He’s in good spirits. He’s ultra positive as always. There’s still some weeks to go before we get to Perth for the Test prep. We’ll see where that lands. Hopefully, we’ll see a lot of him through the summer and we’ll see what we can do," Starc was quoted as saying by Fox Cricket.
