Australia's World Cup-winning skipper, Pat Cummins, will be in great demand at the IPL 2024 auction. Pat Cummins has a rich history with the league. He has played a lot of his cricket with the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and has also had a successful season with the Delhi Capitals. He was released by KKR ahead of the auction, however, they will still be interested in adding him back to the team if they get a chance. However, the competition will be fierce. Cummins comes into the auction as one of the most experienced bowlers in the pool. He has also displayed great leadership ability, taking Australia to the 2023 ODI World Cup title against all odds. He has set his base price at Rs 2 crore.Big strides with KKRPat Cummins is an IPL veteran. He has been a part of the league since 2014 when he made his debut for the KKR. In his debut match, he bowled an absolute peach that sneaked past Dwayne Smith's defence. That was the only match Cummins would play in his debut season. But the wicket made enough of an impact for KKR to retain the pacer. They also won the title that season, which prompted them to keep the team's core intact.Cummins played three more matches in the next season. But on two of those occasions, he bowled his allotted four overs. However, he ended up with just one wicket to show for his efforts.Cummins' first real opportunity to become a regular came in 2017 when he went to the Delhi Capitals (then Delhi Daredevils). He played 12 matches for the team and picked up 15 wickets. His average was also at a respectable 24.86. Seeing his numbers, the Mumbai Indians bought him up for the 2018 Season, paying Rs 5.4 Crore. But Cumming missed the entire season due to a back injury. He also decided to forego the 2019 season due to the high-workload at international level.All-round showCummins returned to the IPL in 2020. He was one of the top international bowlers by this point. After a fierce bidding battle between Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore, he eventually went to the Kolkata Knight Riders for a price of Rs 15.5 crore. It was the highest price a franchise had paid for an overseas player up until that point. He played 14 matches for KKR in that season, picking up 12 wickets.He appeared less often in the subsequent season. He played just seven matches and bagged nine wickets. He started to shine with the bat too. He scored an unbeaten 66 against the Chennai Super Kings to take his team to victory. KKR released him before the next auction but bought him back at a lower price of Rs 7.25 crore. His experience was invaluable for the side, but on the field, he appeared for only five matches. However, he made an even bigger impact with the bat. He scored the second-fastest fifty of the IPL off just 14 balls.Pat Cummins comes into the 2023 edition as Australia's ODI World Cup-winning captain.Teams that could target Pat CumminsKKR have shown earlier that they are capable of releasing Cummins, only to get him back at a discount. They could try this again in the 2024 IPL auction. Cummins is familiar with the team and some of his best performances have come while playing for them. Cummins' all-round ability will be an asset for KKR as they have bolstered their spin department but kept their options open for pacers.Gujarat Titans could use a good all-rounder for Hardik Pandya's exit as well. They have a young captain in Shubman Gill. Cummins' experience will be a huge asset for Gill in his first season at the helm. Cummins will also add some variety to the Gujarat attack that has Mohammed Shami as the mainstay.After trading Avesh Khan, Lucknow Super Giants will also want a good fast-bowling option to replace him. Mark Wood is currently the team's go-to pacer. He could form a dangerous partnership with Cummins. Both bowlers are genuine wicket-takers. Naveen Ul Haq can be an effective first-change bowler to keep the opposition from getting away with the game.Topics mentioned in this article

Australian spin king Nathan Lyon moved to within three wickets of joining the elite 500 club Friday as Pakistan dug deep to stay in touch on day two of the opening Test in Perth. At stumps, the visitors were 132-2, trailing by 355, with a dogged Imam-ul-Haq not out 38 and nightwatchman Khurram Shahzad on seven after they lost skipper Shan Masood late on. But it was a slow grind with their runs coming off 53 overs after Aamer Jamal took 6-111 on debut to help dismiss the hosts for 487.Mitchell Marsh starred with 90 after David Warner's defiant 164 on day one.Abdullah Shafique was the first to fall in reply, getting a big inside edge from Lyon to Warner at leg slip after grinding to 42.It was the veteran's 497th Test wicket as he closes in on 500 to join a group of just seven other players.At the other end, Haq was stoic, weathering a fiery bowling blitz from Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood and Pat Cummins on a pitch that still had some zip.It took him 85 deliveries before his first boundary, guiding one fine off his hip.Aggressive skipper Shan Masood made 30 before his stay ended 10 minutes before close, caught behind by Alex Carey off Starc on review.Shan had earlier taken a nasty blow to the back when he turned to avoid a Haq drive, but was able to continue after treatment.BreakthroughThe visitors kept themselves in the hunt for a first Test win in the country since 1995 by dismissing Australia early in the second session, after the home side went to lunch at 476-7.Marsh was bowled by paceman Shahzad for 90 on the first ball back and the tail collapsed with impressive speedster Jamal in the thick of the action.Australia had resumed on 346-5 after dominating the opening day with Warner hitting 164 to silence his critics.Marsh began on 16 and Carey 15 with Pakistan desperate for an early breakthrough.But on another scorching day, the tourists struggled to make an impact with some pedestrian bowling before Jamal was introduced.Hometown hero Marsh, Australia's T20 captain, smacked consecutive boundaries off the first over he faced from Shahzad to set the tone.Preferred to Cameron Green as the team's all-rounder, he brought up a 66-ball 50 -- his fifth in 36 Tests -- with a classy pull to the ropes and looked destined to reach three figures.But Shahzad shattered his hopes after lunch, knocking over his stumps as he attempted a big drive.Jamal then quickly removed Cummins and Lyon, both caught by Agha Salman.He earlier trapped wicketkeeper-batsman Carey, eager to make runs to cement his Test spot after losing his place in Australia's one-day team to Josh Inglis.Carey survived a big lbw call from Shaheen Shah Afridi on the second ball of the day, but he had no answer to a lightning-quick Jamal delivery that rattled his off stump.He departed for 34, ending a dangerous 90-run partnership with Marsh.Starc also fell victim to Jamal, getting an edge to another pacy ball that removed the bails.(This story has not been edited by NDTV staff and is auto-generated from a syndicated feed.)Topics mentioned in this article

Team Kolkata Knight Riders in action© AFPIPL 2024 mini auctions are just around the corner and all the franchises are ready to strengthen their squads for the upcoming season. A total of 333 players will be going under the hammers, out of which, 214 are Indians and 119 are overseas players and two are from associate nations. A maximum of 77 slots are now available with up to 30 being slotted for overseas players. The fans are eagerly waiting to witness the bidding war for the likes of Mitchell Starc, Rachin Ravindra, and Travis Head, after their heroics at the ODI World Cup 2023.Former India skipper Sunil Gavaskar stated all the franchises will be having their eyes on Australia skipper Pat Cummins, as he brings all-round qualities with him to the team.“I think there will be tremendous interest in Pat Cummins. Don't forget when he played for KKR, he got the fastest fifty at one stage. So he can play as a batter as well, apart from the fact that he's one of the best bowlers that the game has seen. I think he would be the one that will attract the most interest from all the franchises,” Gavaskar told Star Sports.Apart from Gavaskar, former India batter Sanjay Manjrekar also rooted for the Australian skipper and stated that he can also be a good option for captaincy."Pat Cummins would be a great addition on a pitch with where, you know most bowlers struggle. He has got that X factor and out of the box thinking, you know, just something of a wild card. A couple of teams looking for leadership, different leadership. SunRisers Hyderabad with Aiden Markram, Punjab Kings with Shikhar Dhawan. So Pat Cummins recent performance as a leader as well could maybe get the attention of a few team owners as well. Unlikely to happen, but can't rule that out," he added.The IPL 2024 auctions will be held on December 19 in Mumbai.Topics mentioned in this article

Ahead of the first Test clash against Pakistan, Australia skipper Pat Cummins named Travis Head as the co-vice-captain alongside Steve Smith. Australia will face Pakistan in Perth on Thursday, a clash that promises to be a gripping affair of red-ball cricket. Head who has been the guiding light for the Baggy Greens in their World Test Championship and World Cup triumph earlier this year has been promoted through the ranks. The southpaw's recent promotion could be a foreshadowing of Australia's future leader in the white jersey. The 29-year-old was added to Australia's leadership group on Wednesday, just a day before the three-match Test series between two cricketing giants kicks off."Really excited to have Trav on board as the co-vice-captain. He's been playing for a long time. He's always been a leader in our group. So we thought it was a good time to formally recognise that. Whilst nothing's imminent, Steve's not going to play forever. I daresay I'm not going to captain forever. So we feel like we've got some responsibility to future-proof the team and start trying to give opportunities to other leaders," Cummins said as quoted from ESPNcricinfo.The senior deputy role still belongs to Australia's experienced batter, Smith, who has stood in for Cummins in four separate Test matches in the past two years. He also led the Aussie side in 34 Tests between 2014 and 2018.But after the sandpaper scandal, Smith lost his place and is highly unlikely to take the captaincy role once again.After the sandpaper scandal, Head was co-vice-captain of the Test team alongside Cummins when Tim Paine was captain.But he was dropped from the position after he lost his place in the Test team after he was dropped from the side during the 2019-20 home series against India.But his rich vein of form has resulted in him being picked in the red-ball set-up once again.Head played a pivotal role in Australia's triumph in the World Test Championship and ODI World Cup is also in the mix.In last month's World Cup, he won Player of the Match in the semi-final and final, as Australia went on to lift the trophy for a record sixth time."I think the personality that he brings to the team is something that we all love. And I think you see it in the way he plays his cricket. There's a certain amount of freedom to it. He takes the game on. He enjoys it. He's always got a smile on his face," Cummins added.Australia playing XI against Pakistan: David Warner, Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne, Steve Smith, Travis Head, Mitch Marsh, Alex Carey (wk), Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins (c), Nathan Lyon, Josh Hazlewood.Topics mentioned in this article

Australia named the playing XI on the eve of the first Test of the ICC World Test Championship series against Pakistan. There weren't many surprises in the playing XI that the Aussie decided to put up for their first Test outing against Pakistan. Right-arm pacer Pat Cummins will lead the side with experienced batter Steve Smith acting as his deputy. Left-arm batter Travis Head who played a pivotal role in Australia's triumph in the World Test Championship and ODI World Cup is also in the mix. In last month's World Cup, he won Player of the Match in the semi-final and final, as Australia went on to lift the trophy for a record sixth time. The southpaw's presence will add depth to the dangerous batting set-up of the hosts. Australia will also enjoy the presence of experienced off-spinner Nathan Lyon who is returning to the playing XI after nursing a calf injury.He has been picked ahead of his compatriot Todd Murphy. This is the only change to the Australia XI that took on England in the final match of the Ashes series at The Oval earlier this year.The rest of the squad consists of the usual setup that has been key to Australia's success. The left-handed duo of David Warner and Usman Khawaja will open the innings as for the hosts.A strong middle-order will see Marnus Labuschagne, Smith, and Head amd Mitchell Marsh.Marsh has been given a nod to take the all-rounder's role ahead of youngster Cameron Green who was preferred for the majority of the year.Alex Carey will take the role behind the stumps for Australia in red-ball cricket, even though Josh Inglis was preferred for the majority of Australia's successful World Cup campaign.Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins, and Josh Hazlewood will be the pace trio for the Aussies.Australia playing XI against Pakistan: David Warner, Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne, Steve Smith, Travis Head, Mitch Marsh, Alex Carey (wk), Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins (c), Nathan Lyon, Josh Hazlewood.Pakistan playing XI against Australia: Imam-ul-Haq, Abdullah Shafique, Shan Masood (c), Babar Azam, Saud Shakeel, Sarfaraz Ahmed (wk), Salman Ali Agha, Faheem Ashraf, Shaheen Afridi, Aamir Jamal, and Khurram Shahzad.Topics mentioned in this article
