The accident failure is threatened by the preparation of its ashes and forces him to skip three ODI from October 19 against India, which could be the launch of Rohit Sharma and Virt Kohli.Test and Captain Odi did not play from the West Indies test series, where his bowling rate was significantly lower than usual. He missed five T20is against West Indies and both series of white balls against South Africa.The break was initially planned for Cummins to provide a 10 -week gap to build physical power in front of the ashes, scheduled for November 21 in Perth. However, back pain persisted longer than west Indies were expected.Australia’s cricket statement described in detail the situation: “Cummins were rested from the recent T20 series against Western India and South Africa. Despite this planned period of the De-record, Cummins experienced a ongoing back after the West Indies test tour.”The statement also explained: “Further investigation identified the level of lumbar bone stress that will require further proceedings in the coming months. Cummins will not be considered as the upcoming series limited against India and will continue the rehabilitation plan with a return to bowling.
