Australia's captain Pat Cummins plans to spend more time at home for the birth of his second child, potentially leading him to miss a portion of the upcoming Test series in Sri Lanka. Cummins emphasizes family and well-being over cricket commitments, setting a precedent within Australian cricket.
Australia ’s captain Pat Cummins has resolved to spend more time at home around the birth of his second child, even if it means missing a chunk of next year’s Test series in Sri Lanka .
“Yeah it’s definitely a factor. We haven’t worked out exactly what that looks like – it’s pretty hard to plan exactly the day, but definitely,” Cummins told this masthead. “I missed a big chunk last time and I want to work out how we can spend a bit more time at home for that initial period this time around.Getty Images
“I’m really glad he was there for the birth because I don’t think I could’ve done it without him,” Becky told this masthead in 2021. “However, looking back, him leaving the day after we got home from hospital was the most ridiculous, hardest thing … it was terrible timing. But I wouldn’t have had it any other way; he got to be there, of course, and you’ve got to do what you’ve got to do.
