In Adelaide, Australia, former cricketer Adam Gilchrist praised Australian cricket captain Pat Cummins for his amazing performance in the recent Test match against India. Australia won the match by 10 wickets, tying the series 1-1.

Cummins was fantastic, taking seven wickets and helping Australia secure the win. Gilchrist spoke about Cummins on Fox Cricket’s podcast, saying he seemed refreshed and ready to play after the previous loss in Perth. He noted, “Cummins was outstanding; he looked like a car that just got a good tune-up and was running smoothly again.”

Gilchrist also mentioned that Cummins celebrated each wicket more passionately than before, showing how much winning meant to the team after being disappointed in their last game.

In the Adelaide Test, India chose to bat first but struggled against Australia’s fast bowler Mitchell Starc, scoring only 180 runs. Besides a good partnership between KL Rahul and Shubman Gill, not much went well for India. Cummins and Scott Boland each took two wickets.

In Australia’s first innings, Travis Head played brilliantly, scoring 140 runs and helping his team reach a total of 337 runs, giving Australia a big lead of 157 runs. Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj were the best bowlers for India.

In their second innings, India went down again, with many players getting out quickly, finishing with just 175 runs. This meant India only had a small lead of 18 runs, setting Australia a target of just 19 runs to win. Cummins took five wickets in this innings, marking his eighth five-wicket haul as captain. Boland and Starc also contributed with wickets.

Australia chased down the target quickly, with Usman Khawaja and Nathan McSweeney scoring the runs in just 3.2 overs. It was a great game for Cummins and his team, showing they are back in good form.
