Watching Stokes' Headingley heroics best thing Australia did, says Cummins
The HinduPat Cummins has revealed how a difficult team meeting the day after Ben Stokes' Headingley heroics helped Australia get their Ashes campaign back on track in 2019. As shown in the Amazon Prime documentary 'The Test: A New Era for Australia's Team', head coach Justin Langer called the squad together the following day to watch back footage of the fourth day's play, a move Cummins thought was a risk as emotions were still running high. Australia went on to win the next match in Manchester and while England claimed the finale at The Oval, a 2-2 result made sure the tourist's grip on the Ashes remained.
