Pat Cummins Likely to Miss Second Ashes Test in Brisbane

Australia captain Pat Cummins is likely to be absent from the second Ashes Test as the home team has stuck with the same 14-man squad for the upcoming day-night match in Brisbane. Cummins, who missed the previous dominant victory in Perth due to a back issue, showed promise in practice but was left out of the squad. Although no official reason was provided, Cummins will continue to prepare in Brisbane. Despite his absence, Australia’s victory in the first Test, led by Mitchell Starc, showcased their strength. The squad for the second Test includes notable players like Usman Khawaja and Travis Head. The squad remains strong even without Cummins, with Starc being a key player.
