From his boyhood to early teens Pat Cummins saw Australia complete a hattrick of World Cup wins and in his early youth got that taste of what it means to be a World Champion while being part of the class of 2015Now at 30 Cummins wants to experience that awesome feeling of leading a great bunch of blokes to an unprecedented sixth World Cup title beating a formidable Indian teamIt would be huge We were all kids not too long ago watching some of those great teams win the 99 2003 2007 World Cups Thats the opportunity ahead of us tomorrow which is really exciting To be captain would be an absolute privilege to lift the trophy with these great bunch of blokes Cummins said on the eve of the megafinalThe Australian skipper believes that a tournament thats held only once in four years is certainly going to be a career highlight for him It would be awesome and in terms of the pinnacle I think it is right up there Its got the longest history of a world event where all the teams compete You only get a shot at it every four yearsAlso ReadICC World Cup 2023 IND vs AUS Players with most wicketsSo even if you have a long career you might only play in two of these events 2015 is still a career highlight for me so I think tomorrow if we win we might pip itHaving won the World Test Championship followed by the Ashes it has been an awesome year for Australian cricket and the 50over World Cup will be the icing on the cakeAlso Read ICC World Cup 2023 IND vs AUS Players to score most runsI mean its been a huge year There are four marquee events If you have one of those in an offseason its a big offseason Weve got four of them For some of the guys probably spent less than a couple of weeks in their own bed since the end of the Aussie summerOne thing thats stayed consistent has been the morale in the group The guys have been awesome Theyre so up for every game they play And to put ourselves in a position of this it would just top off an incredible year and probably a careerdefining year that a lot of us will look back on in years to come and be pretty proud of the skipper looked content with his teams formFor Cummins having at least 12 players who have either won a 50over or a T20 World Cup holds the team in good stead as they know how to deal with pressures of a big occasionI think its going to be an even match The good thing is we have got six or seven guys that won it in 2015 so we know that feeling Even more of the guys that were there in the T20 World Cup different format but pretty much everyoneWell at least a dozen of the 15 have won a World Cup and know what it takes and know that feeling and wont be afraid to go out there and be brave and take the game onAs far as the pressure of playing infront of 132000 spectators is concerned Cummins wants his men to embrace the occasion just like David Warner doing Allu Arjuns Srivalli hook step from blockbuster Telugu film PushpaWe play over here in India a lot so the noise is not something new yeah I think on this scale its probably bigger than we would have experienced before but its not something totally foreign to what weve had beforeEveryone deals with it slightly differently You see Davey Warner probably dancing and winning the crowd over other guys just staying in their own bubble iquest yeah it should be goodHaving beaten India in an ODI series in March Cummins is confident of his teams chances in the final but did term Mohammed Shami as Indias standout performerI mean theyre all pretty wellrounded in all departments You know the one guy that didnt play at the start of the tournament whos done really well is obviously Mohammed Shami He is a class bowler to right and leftarmer so yeah hes going to be a big oneEven Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja are going to be pretty tough to face in middleoversTheyve got five guys who bowl 10 overs pretty much every match I think their spinners have done well through the middle overs Kuldeep and Jadeja so theyre going to be a tough proposition like they always are But you know theyve won every game so theyve been very impressiveThis story has been sourced from a third party syndicated feed agencies Midday accepts no responsibility or liability for its dependability trustworthiness reliability and data of the text Midday managementmiddaycom reserves the sole right to alter delete or remove without notice the content in its absolute discretion for any reason whatsoever
