Cricket Australia (CA) is all set to announce the squad for the Pink Ball Test on Friday, November 28, and Pat Cummins is all but confirmed to lead the hosts in the second Ashes Test against England at The Gabba after missing his team’s dominating eight-wicket victory in Perth.
According to Code Sports, it is still unclear whether Cummins will walk straight into the playing XI, but he will definitely feature in the squad for the Day-Night Test that CA is expected to announce on Friday. His return adds even more strength to the team in the ongoing five-match Test series.

— Daniel Cherny (@DanielCherny) November 27, 2025Usman Khawaja’s back concerns continue to worry the Australian team management, while Travis Head’s unforgettable fourth-innings century in Perth has added a new twist to the selection puzzle.
Pat Cummins stuns selectors with full-throttle comeback in nets
At the Sydney training session, fellow pacer Josh Hazlewood also turned up, but there is little hope of him recovering in time for the Day-Night Test against England. Hazlewood is still dealing with a hamstring injury and is not expected to be available for selection.
Meanwhile, Australia’s rising fast bowler Brendan Doggett is keeping himself fully ready for the Day-Night Test at the Gabba, especially with captain Pat Cummins still working his way back from a back injury. Doggett said that he doesn’t know yet if he will play, but he has made it clear that he will be prepared to step in the moment the team needs him.
Pat is looking pretty good in the nets: Brendan Doggett
Brendan Doggett stated, as quoted by Cricket Australia’s official website, “Pat is looking pretty good in the nets now, so we will see where that lands. I am going to control what I can control, keep ticking the legs over, and keep bowling and trying to improve in every session and game. If I get called on in that second test, I feel like I am ready to go again.”
Doggett further added, “There have been no conversations whatsoever (on making way for Cummins). We are soaking in the win and letting everyone get back to their families. We arrive in Brisbane on Sunday, so I assume conversations will start there about what the line-up looks like for the second test.”
