T20 World Cup: Aussie Pat Cummins hails ‘form team’ England ahead of clash

Australia fast bowler Pat Cummins hailed England as the “form team” in white-ball cricket, but shrugged off the potential impact on the forthcoming Ashes of Saturday’s T20 World Cup clash.


Eoin Morgan’s England are the 50-over World Cup champions and chasing a second T20 global title after their 2010 triumph. Both teams go into today’s clash in Dubai with two wins in two games and the semi-finals enticingly within reach. Adding extra spice is the approaching Ashes series which starts in December. “It’s always huge. We play England a lot. I think the style of play is quite similar. We like to take the game on,” said Cummins on Friday.


“They’ve been probably just about the form team the last few years in white ball cricket. We know it’s such a big game in the context of making the semi-finals.” Australia are the current holders of the Ashes. However, few in the T20 teams are regular Test players. For example, Morgan and Australia skipper Aaron Finch will not be involved while England fast bowler Tymal Mills only plays the T20 format. “The majority of the side are mainly white-ball players. Different format. I wouldn’t read into it too much,” added Cummins who does excel in both formats.
