Cummins raring to go By Laine CLark Sitting on the couch watching yet another home series on TV, an injury-plagued Pat Cummins admitted the thought of playing a test on Australian soil felt more elusive than ever. But six long years after donning his baggy green for the first time, the 24-year-old reckons he has finally got his head around the concept ahead of the Ashes starting in Brisbane on Thursday. Fireworks are expected when Cummins is unleashed for the first time on Australian soil in a test attack alongside Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc. However, not so long ago home test series were a bit of a fizzer for
Pat Cummins Cummins. The NSW quick burst onto the international scene as an 18-year-old in 2011 with a man-of-the-match display on Test debut in South Africa. Injuries – largely stress fractures in his back – and seemingly endless rehabilitations ensured
he didn’t play another test until March this year. “With each year it seemed like I was further way in some ways,” Cummins said. “But all my tours were overseas so when I came back to Australia I was watching cricket so I didn’t really associate that it was a team I was a part of. This is probably the first time that I actually feel close and feel like I am a chance of playing so I am pumped.” Cummins was the lone fast bowler selected for the second test against Bangladesh in the draining Chittagong heat. “I got a lot of confidence out of that,” said Cummins, who has strung together five tests since 2011. - AAP
