Speaking to the media at Sabina Park during the pre-match press conference, Cummins has confirmed that he will spend the next few weeks in a focused training block, mainly doing gym work rather than bowling. The Australian captain has insisted that his body feels good, but he wants to fix a few minor issues before the busy summer ahead.
I'll have a good training block for the next couple of months: Pat Cummins
Pat Cummins was quoted as saying by ESPNCricinfo: “I'll have a good training block for the next couple of months, six weeks or so. Probably not bowling, but lots of gym work. My body feels pretty good, but there are always little bits and pieces you're always trying to get right and then build up for the summer. So, it'll probably look like white-ball cricket…we've got some matches against New Zealand, India, potentially a Shield game, and then into the home summer.”
Notably, Cummins is still Australia’s ODI captain, but he has only led the team twice in the format since their 2023 World Cup victory in India. Earlier this year, he missed the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 due to an ankle injury, which he had been managing during the Test series against India.
Pat Cummins says strong performances in West Indies and Shield games can boost Test selection chances
He signed off by saying, “There's a lot of Shield cricket to come and some Aussie A stuff as well. I think if you do well at the test level, anytime it's going to kind of make your case more compelling. I think there's a bit of a connection to the summer, but it feels a long way away at the moment.”
