Australia captain Pat Cummins said yesterday he is targeting the Indian Premier League to make his return from a niggling injury that sidelined him from the Champions Trophy.
The 31-year- old quick has been struggling with a long-standing left ankle issue that flared during the Test series win over India in December-January.
He missed the dominant two-Test victory in Sri Lanka and the Champions Trophy in Pakistan, where a Steve Smith-led Australia open their account against England on Saturday.
Cummins told cricket.com. au he aimed to honour his contract with Sunrisers Hyderabad when the IPL starts on March 22. “The ankle is starting to come good,” he said. “It’s a funny one –- it’s not like a hamstring where you need six weeks (to recover).
