Australian speedster Pat Cummins feels that getting the opposition captain Virat Kohli out early in the game would give a lot of boost to him and the team and strengthen their chances of winning the matches. He gave the example of how it is the same for England and New Zealand too.
"I think every side has that one or two batters and they are the big wickets. Most teams have their captain - Joe Root for England, Kane Williamson for New Zealand. You feel like if you get their wicket that goes a long way in winning the game," Cummins was quoted as saying to 'Fox Cricket'.
"He (Kohli) is always a big one. You commentators talk about him non-stop, so hopefully, we can keep him quiet," he added.
Even though he is getting used to the bio- Bubble conditions, Cummins seemed excited to be back in the Aussie nation after 3-4 months.
"It's good to be back here in Sydney. We've been in the middle of it (cricket in bio-secure bubbles) for three or four months now so we're starting to get used to it," he said.
"We went over to the UK and had a good tour there. Most of the boys here have been playing T20 matches in the last few weeks and the other guys coming in will be playing shrewd cricket. So, it feels like we are all firing up and got a lot of stuff behind us," added the New South Wales bowler saying that the team is confident of pitting on a good show.
"Whatever conditions we come up with, I have got a couple of tools I can go to," Cummins, who has taken 145 scalps in limited-overs international for Australia said.
