Patrick James Cummins (born 8 May 1993) is an Australian international cricketer who is currently the captain of the Australian national team in Test cricket. He is the vice-captain of the team in limited-overs cricket. He is a fast bowler and a capable lower-order right-handed batsman, and plays and captains domestic cricket for New South Wales. He is the second specialist fast bowler to captain Australia, after Ray Lindwall. Cummins made his Test debut at the age of 18 in 2011. Injuries then forced him out of test cricket for over five years, until he returned to the Australian team in 2017. According to the ICC Player Rankings, he was the world's top ranked bowler at the end of 2019 and 2020. In January 2020, he was named as the Test Cricketer of the Year by the International Cricket Council (ICC). In April 2020 he was named as one of the Wisden Cricketers of the Year for his performances in the 2019 English season in the 2020 edition of Wisden Cricketers' Almanack.
Cummins played junior cricket for the Glenbrook Blaxland Cricket Club in the Blue Mountains before playing first-grade cricket for Penrith in 2010. That same year, Cummins represented NSW in the National Under-17 championships and later the NSW Under-19 side. In the preliminary final of the 2010–11 KFC Twenty20 Big Bash against Tasmania, Cummins took 4 for 16 and was named Man of the Match. He finished with Nathan Lyon as the leading wicket-taker in the tournament. In March 2011, he made his first-class debut in a match against Tasmania after impressing for the NSW 2nd XI. He returned figures of 2/80. Cummins played the final three matches of the 2010/11 Sheffield Shield season, including the final where he bowled 65 overs for the match, aged just 17. He was later ruled out of the Australia A tour of Zimbabwe due to a back injury.

Some Interesting & Unknown Facts About Pat Cummins
Having burst onto the scene as a 17-year-old who topped the wicket-taker list in the 2010-11 state-based Big Bash League, Pat Cummins was quickly identified as a future star.

Soon enough in 2011-12, the Sydney boy became the youngest player ever to earn a central contract with Cricket Australia.
|
On the back of just a handful of first-class games, he was thrown into the deep end of Test cricket against South Africa in 2011. Showing no signs of nerves, he took 6-79 in the second innings and hit the winning runs to be named player of the match in Australia's narrow win.
|
After a long run of injuries, Cummins returned to the NSW side for the Marsh One Day Cup and was part of the Australian squad that won the 2015 ODI World Cup.
|
After careful management and working his way back to full fitness in shorter forms of the game, Cummins became a Test fixture from the 2017-18 Ashes onwards, spearheading an enviable pace attack alongside Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood.
|
He quickly rose to be the world's No.1 ranked bowler in Test cricket, and was part of the side that won Australia's first ever men's T20 World Cup in 2021.

In November 2021, just days out from the opening Test of that summer's Ashes series, Pat Cummins became Australia's 47th Test captain.
