Pat Cummins ruled out of Champions Trophy as Australia in two-way battle for new captain; forced to make 4 replacements

Hindustan Times  

Australia's preparations for the 2025 Champions Trophy have been dealt another significant blow with the confirmation that skipper Pat Cummins and fellow fast bowler Josh Hazlewood will not feature in the tournament. Australia's captain Pat Cummins looks on during the 2023 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Stoinis’ decision, effective immediately, adds to the mounting pressure as Australia grapples with multiple key changes in a critical period leading up to the tournament. “Unfortunately Pat, Josh and Mitch are managing some ongoing injuries and haven’t come up in time for the Champion’s Trophy,” said George Bailey, the national selection panel chair. In light of the injuries, Australia's head coach Andrew McDonald had earlier acknowledged the likelihood that the pace duo will not make the Champions Trophy, signaling the need for a captaincy change.
