Pat Cummins ruled out of Champions Trophy due to injury; set to return to IPL.

Australia cricket team captain Pat Cummins has recently indicated that he may be seen playing in IPL 2025. Significantly, due to the ankle injury of the left leg, he was out of the ongoing Champions Trophy 2025. So at the same time, he could not participate in the last match of the five -match Test series against India and two Tests played on Sri Lanka tour.

In the absence of Cummins, Steve Smith has been given the reins of the Australia cricket team for Champions Trophy. Australia is going to play their first match against England in Lahore on Saturday at Champions Trophy.

Pat Cummins made a big statement

Let us know that cricket.com.au on Friday. Talking to, Cummins said- Ankle is now coming into good condition. It is not a haemstring injury in which you need 6 weeks to recover. This is something that you need to take rest.

Cummins further said- it has been a wonderful month, just focused on the time of the family and has not taken much training or I am not eyeing the tour. Just being fully present has been really special. It was strange to sit sitting Sri Lanka Test series. I have not really seen boys playing on TV for years. They were fantastic, there was no problem in boys.

I can follow it and really enjoy it. It is my goal that I return as soon as possible. It is four overs in T20. So physically, this is a very good preparation for the World Test Championship final and then Test matches.

From this statement given by Cummins, you can guess that he wants to finalize the preparations for his WTC final through IPL.
