AUS vs IND: Australia suffered a big blow in the middle of the Test series, captain Pat Cummins returned home due to domestic reasons

The Border-Gavaskar Test series is being played between India and Australia. In the 2 matches held so far, India has won a tremendous victory. With this, Team India has retained its hold on this trophy. So far both the matches have ended in three days each. The third Test match between India and Australia will be played in Indore. But before that Australia has got a big blow. In fact, captain Pat Cummins had to return to Australia immediately after the Dilli Test. It is being told that the health of someone in Pat Cummins’s family has deteriorated due to which the captain has to return to Australia.

 

The Test match is to be played in Indore from March 1. In such a situation, it is expected that due to the long break in the middle, Pat Cummins can return before the third Test match. Sources have also told that if Pat Cummins does not return before the Indore Test, then former captain Steve Smith may be seen captaining Australia in the third match. Talking about the present, Australia’s tour of India has not been anything special. Nagpur lost by an innings and 132 runs. Apart from this, Australia has also lost by six wickets in Delhi. India won both the test matches unilaterally. This is the reason why many big players are constantly venting their anger on the Australia team.

 

Australia, who had lost both the first Tests to India, suffered another blow on Monday when fast bowler Josh Hazlewood was ruled out of the remaining two matches of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy due to a foot injury. Australia lost the first two Tests – in Nagpur and Delhi – within three days. The last two matches will be played in Indore (March 1 to 5) and Ahmedabad (March 9 to 13). Australia head coach Andrew McDonald confirmed that Hazlewood, who was ruled out of the Nagpur and Delhi Tests, would continue to undergo treatment in Sydney.
