Playing arch-foes India will be ‘attritional’: Pat Cummins

AUSTRALIAN captain Pat Cummins expects the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against arch-foes India to be more “attritional” as the two heavyweights of world cricket spar over five Test matches instead of the traditional four games.

And given the enormity of the series, Cummins believes players would not have the time to be distracted by the IPL auction that would take place in Jeddah on Sunday, the third day of the match.
