New Delhi. Australia captain Pat Cummins believes that IPL has ended the monopoly of international cricket. He said that in future it will be a challenge to convince the players to give importance to the national team over franchise cricket. Cummins said that the IPL had changed the landscape of cricket a decade ago and in such a situation he agreed with Trent Boult’s decision to turn down the New Zealand Cricket contract and play in T20 leagues around the world. Fast bowler Cummins is also fully prepared for the final of the World Test Championship to be held at The Oval from June 7 against India.
Talking to the Sydney Morning Herald, the Test captain of the Kangaroo team, Pat Cummins, said that for some time it seemed that this was going to happen and now it is happening. He said that international cricket is no longer the monopoly of players’ time. I believe we have to be proactive about this. Cummins wants his players to prioritize the national team over anything else, but said it would be challenging to do so in the current era of big-money franchise-based leagues.
Pat Cummins said that we have to make playing for Australia as special as possible. But it’s going to be a challenge. We should think seriously about this. Cummins also said that the World Test Championship has made the bilateral Test series more important. He said that he is looking forward to playing against India in Australia’s first WTC final.
Captain’s big words before WTC Final, said- We took Team India to the final, means…
Pat Cummins said that we had taken India to the final of the first World Test Championship, which I think many people have forgotten. Because of the championship, every series has become more important now.
