"Getting ready for a huge summer. First few bowls back after a pre-season break. let’s gooooo!" Cummins captioned. Ahead of the upcoming Border Gavaskar Trophy, Cummins pointed out that their major focus will be Rishabh Pant. 



"Every team has one or two of those players who take the game on. Australia have Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh. I think those guys, you know that they are going to be aggressive, take the game on. Like Rishabh Pant might play a reverse slap and it is an incredible shot and that's just part of who he is," Cummins said on Star Sports.


"He's someone that has a big influence in a couple of series and we have go to try and keep him quiet," he further added.
