Those guys are so nice, if you make even the slightest mistake they will find a way to throw you off your game. It is always good to play against Virat. He has troubled me many times. I have also put him in trouble many times. “It’s always pretty cool.”

He will be the first player to admit that he just needs to score a few runs to stay in the team. His poor form is not due to lack of practice in the nets. Apparently he was out in the second innings (first Test against New Zealand) due to down leg problem. Cummins further said- We are very clear about our team that these 6 players are the best batsmen of our team. Although sometimes this is not seen, the story of our team has been that when someone needs someone, someone always stands up.

Pat Cummins (Image Credit- Twitter X) Former Indian cricket team all-rounder and cricket commentator Irfan Pathan has given a big statement criticizing Sunrisers Hyderabad’s purchase of Australian captain Pat Cummins at a huge price in the IPL auction. It is noteworthy that Cummins was bought by Sunrisers Hyderabad for a record Rs 20.5 crore in the mini auction held in Dubai in December last year. With this, he became the second most expensive player sold in the auction in the history of 17 seasons of IPL.

Irfan Pathan gave a big statement regarding Pat Cummins Let us tell you that Irfan Pathan said on Star Sports about Pat Cummins – I believe that Pat Cummins has not yet proved himself in T20 cricket. Forget about IPL, he has not been able to prove himself in T20 cricket for Australia yet. Irfan further said- He does not even captain Australia in T20 International cricket, so a question mark arises on receiving such a huge amount. Cummins’s statistics in T20 cricket are not good. However, how can you leave them out when you bid so much on them? Apart from this, Pathan said about the playing eleven of Sunrisers Hyderabad in the upcoming IPL season – they will have some trouble in choosing the final playing eleven, which is a good thing. It’s better to have a headache than not having an option. Hyderabad have a different team combination this time compared to last year, which I think is a better change.
