Cummins wants to win the World Cup

Australia captain Pat Cummins has his eyes set on the sixth World Cup title. A few days back, while speaking cricket.com.au, Cummins had revealed his wish to win the World Cup in India. He had said that winning the World Cup is a huge achievement and that Aussies are lucky to have won the ODI and T20 World cups. He said that the team is very confident to achieve it and they have experience too to do the same. 

"It's one of those career highlights where you're lucky if you have one, let alone a few of them, so that's going to be the aim for a lot of the guys. These are the kind of tournaments that at the end of your career, you look back on, so we'll be there, pumped, and giving it everything," said Cummins. He also said that the new Australian setup has some new players and the campaign is going to be a lot of fun. "It's a bit of a different group, we all get on really well, so we're excited. We'll have a lot of fun when we get over there and we can't wait to get there."
