Pat Cummins
Cummins was unfortunate to miss out on Test cricket for 5 long years because of an injury after making his debut in 2011. He has taken 71 wickets in 16 Test matches at an average of 24.8 and a strike rate of 51.5. Those stats are top-notch and underline his undeniable quality as a bowler. He is still only 25 years old and should have a long career ahead of him.
Cummins is tall and strong and can bowl long spells tirelessly. He also generates good bounce off the surface and usually bowls at the line just outside the off-stump. However, a wobbly seam position remains a concern for him. However, his control over line and length makes him a good bowler on all kinds of surfaces and one of the best pacers in the world.
