MELBOURNE, May 21: Australian pace spearhead Pat Cummins believes the IPL will be a great way to resume cricket after the coronavirus-forced hiatus and the high-octane tournament will also help in preparing for the T20 World Cup this year.
Cummins was bought by Kolkata Knight Riders for a whopping Rs 15.5 crores, making him the most expensive foreign player in the IPL.
The 27-year-old said he has been in touch with his owners and is optimistic of playing the tournament this year.
�Whenever I speak to the owners of the team and the staff there, they�re still really confident that it can be played at some stage this year,� Cummins told SEN on Thursday.
�I was really looking forward to playing it for many obvious reasons, hopefully it goes ahead.� � PTI
