Pat Cummins and Co Crowned World Test Champions
Pat Cummins and his team achieved an overwhelming victory over India, claiming the title of World Test Champions. The Aussies were superior in all three aspects of the game, and were duly rewarded with the ultimate reward. In response to Indian skipper Rohit Sharma’s suggestion of a three-match series to decide the winner of the World Test Championship, Cummins dismissed the idea.
Sharma’s Suggestion for a Three-Match Series
Rohit Sharma expressed his desire for a three-match series to determine the winner of the World Test Championship. He said, “I would love that. But is there a time? That’s the big question. But honestly, in a big event like this, you need to have fair opportunities to both the teams. You know, a three-match series would be nice, but it’s about finding that window where it can be fit in. But I would love to have it in an event like this, you work hard for two years and then you have only one shot at it.”
Cummins’ Response to Sharma’s Proposal
Cummins disagreed with Sharma’s idea, arguing that it would not allow both teams to get into the necessary momentum for Test cricket. He said, “So, it’s not really…you cannot get into that momentum that you need in Test cricket. You know, Test cricket is all about…”
Conclusion
In the end, Pat Cummins and his team were crowned World Test Champions after a thumping victory over India. While Rohit Sharma proposed a three-match series to decide the winner of the World Test Championship, Cummins disagreed, citing the lack of momentum for Test cricket that such a series would provide.
