Speaking about Cummins delivery to Brathwaite, the Australian skipper bowled a peach to send his opposite number back to the pavilion. The speedster bowled a length delivery around off-stump and the ball came back with the angle to beat Brathwaite’s defenses.
‘We bowled well in the first session and were unlucky not to have taken more than one wicket, but we kept bowling the right lines and were rewarded with a few more wickets in this session. Feeling nice about getting to 200 Test wickets’, said Pat Cummins during the Tea Break.
