Australian cricket team captain Pat Cummins has become a father for the second time. His wife, Becky Cummins, gave birth to a baby girl, and Cummins shared the news on social media by posting a picture of his wife and their new child. Cummins has taken a break from cricket due to the birth of his second child.
Currently, the Australian team is on a tour of Sri Lanka, but Cummins is not part of the team. He is also struggling with an injury, which will keep him out of the Champions Trophy in 2025. The Australian team will have to find a replacement captain for the tournament, as Cummins will not be participating.
Cummins’ second child, a baby girl, has been named Eddie. He shared a picture of his wife and baby girl on social media, expressing his happiness and love for his new family member. This is not the first time Cummins has become a father; in October 2021, he welcomed a baby boy named Albie. At that time, Cummins and his wife, Becky, were not married, but they tied the knot in August 2022.
Cummins has been ruled out of the 2025 Champions Trophy due to his injury. The Australian team will have to make changes to their squad by February 12, and it will be interesting to see who takes over as captain in Cummins’ absence. Cummins plays all three formats of cricket for Australia and has played 67 Tests, 90 ODIs, and 57 T20 Internationals. He has scored 1454 runs and taken 294 wickets in Test cricket, 537 runs and 143 wickets in ODIs, and 158 runs and 66 wickets in T20 Internationals.
