“Deserves A Lot Of Credit”: Tim Paine Lavishes Praise On Pat Cummins’ Captaincy In World Cup Triumph | Cricket News

[ad_1] Australia's former Test skipper Tim Paine has praised Pat Cummins for his exemplary leadership and performance with the ball after their triumphant World Cup campaign in India.
