“I was really angry, but I didn’t know what I was angry at,” said Cummins, who returned to the team to captain the Boxing Day Test. According to ‘The West Australian’ newspaper, Cummins said, “No one could be blamed. Once that is clear, then you must follow the rules of the province. You have to follow them.”
Cummins’ RT-PCR test came back negative but he was asked to remain in isolation as per South Australia’s COVID-19 regulations, which led to him being dropped on the morning of the Adelaide Test. “We knew something like this could happen midway through the series, but I didn’t believe it would happen to me,” Cummins said. ,
