Australia's captain, Pat Cummins, took a jibe at the Indian commentator Sunil Gavaskar for his comments on Josh Hazlewood's exclusion from the squad for the 2nd Test match. Cummins made it clear that there is nothing wrong going on in the team and Gavaskar is trying to 'create headlines'.
"The team is great. Some of the commentators were hundred per cent wrong. When the team is not performing, some of the commentators will try to create headlines. We don’t notice those things as our focus is on preparations to give ourselves a best chance to win the game," said Pat Cummins in the presser.
The Australians are busy prepping for the upcoming match which will start on December 6, at the Adelaide Oval. Pat Cummins and Co. are sorted when it comes to the Pink Ball Test match as their record is pretty impressive. The team hasn't lost a single game in the day/night set-up, which speaks volumes about their performance and confidence. Even though they lost the first game by 295 runs, they will come back with a stronger approach. On the other hand, the Indian team will have to get ready to face the wrath of the Australian players who will be looking forward to taking the revenge.
You are always under pressure when you play at home: Pat Cummins
Pat Cummins has done really well as a captain and knows how to handle the team. He is also one of the best players in the team when it comes to batting and bowling. He spoke about the pressure the team will be in during the home series but the lads are all prepared for it.
"You are always under pressure when you play at home. We have been in similar situations in the past. We didn’t perform well in the last Test but everyone is pumped up for the next four games. We love playing in Australia and every player in this team has got professional pride," said Pat Cummins in the press conference.
