Aussies missing key players for series opener as superstars return from injury
Australian captain Pat Cummins says he has fully recovered from a wrist injury and hopes to play all three one-day internationals against hosts India starting Friday.
While Cummins returns, Australia still won’t have the services of pacer Mitchell Starc and all-rounder Glenn Maxwell for the first match in the northern Indian city of Mohali. “I am feeling pretty good, pretty much 100 per cent, and hope to play tomorrow and play all the games,” Cummins told reporters on Thursday.Join Kayo now and start streaming instantly >
But the Australian pace spearhead said Starc, who is recovering from a groin injury, and Maxwell, from an ankle injury, won’t play “but will be available later in the series”. Most of Australia’s top players are also key members of different franchises in the Indian Premier League tournament, and Cummins said they “have pretty good information” about the local conditions.
