Along with being the captain, Cummins is the mainstay of the Australian team's fast bowling attack. Now the Australian team is in trouble due to his return home. He has taken 217 wickets in 49 Test matches, 124 wickets in 75 ODIs and 55 wickets in 50 T20 matches for Australia.

Australia team got a crushing defeat
