Speaking to cricket.com.au ahead of the game, Cummins said: “It's a bit of a luxury now in this first half of the tournament, but once we get to the Super Eights don't think they'll be taking any rest. Obviously [can play all the games], we are used to playing Test cricket so it is very easy to play four overs, there is no workload problem, you start prioritizing sleep, fueling and things like that. , but in terms of getting ready for the game, it's okay.We have done it many times, a lot of IPL games are one-and-done games, go to the other end of the country and play again. It's not necessarily new but we've kind of got used to it."
