There is no one better than Pat Cummins in the world at the moment.
The No 1 ranked Test bowler produced another mind-boggling spell on the morning of day two of the second match between India and Australia in Melbourne on Sunday. Bowling unchanged for the first hour, Cummins produced two moments of magic for his side. After dismissing Shubman Gill, in his seventh over of the spell, Cummins came up with another unplayable delivery for Cheteshwar Pujara.
The India No 3 had done well till that point to play with soft hands or get beaten by the really good deliveries. But this one, pitched full, took the outside edge and captain Tim Paine came up with a screamer behind the wickets. It was redemption of sorts for Paine, who had put down a catch earlier in the session.
