Australia’s participation in the upcoming Cricket World Cup in India is facing uncertainty due to injuries to key players. Captain Pat Cummins, Steve Smith, Glenn Maxwell, and Mitchell Starc are all dealing with injuries that may affect their availability for the tournament. Despite the doubts, all four players have been included in Australia’s provisional squad for the World Cup. Cummins has a fractured hand, Smith injured a tendon in his wrist, Maxwell is struggling with an ankle complaint, and Starc is recovering from a groin injury. Cricket Australia remains hopeful that the players will recover in time for the tournament. The provisional squad also includes eight players who were part of Australia’s victorious 2019 World Cup campaign. However, the final squad is yet to be announced, and there are several matches scheduled before that, including one-day matches in South Africa and India and World Cup practice games. The Cricket World Cup is set to begin on October 5th, with the final taking place on November 19th. Australia, as the most successful team in World Cup history, will be aiming to reclaim the trophy. The focus will be on the fitness of the star players and their potential impact on the team’s chances.
