Captain Cummins a chance to miss the Ashes
Season 18, Episode 30: Last week we asked whether Australia had a depth problem with fast bowling. A week later, it's suddenly more likely that they might, with Pat Cummins under observation after back soreness that could presage a stress fracture. If the Australian skipper and strike bowler is not fit for a home Ashes, suddenly everything changes. Also this week, Mitchell Starc's first retirement from an international format, Jamie Overton quits red-ball cricket shortly after his Test outing at The Oval, Australia's T20 team heads to NZ, England readies for some South Africa ODIs, the Hundred is over with Davina Perrin the star, and there are leaks about the County Championship restructure.
