Two star players miss the trophy!
Australia faces a major setback ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy as captain Pat Cummins and star pacer Josh Hazlewood are set to miss the tournament due to injuries. With these key players unavailable, Australia may have to make significant changes to their squad and appoint a new captain. This could impact their chances in the prestigious ODI tournament.

The prestigious ICC Champions Trophy ODI tournament is set to begin on February 19, and all teams are preparing for the tournament in Dubai, Pakistan. However, the Australian team has received a blow ahead of the tournament. It appears that two key players will not be available for the Australian team before the start of the ICC Champions Trophy. Australia's captain, Pat Cummins, is expected to miss the tournament. As he is suffering from a leg injury, it has been confirmed by Australian coach Andrew McDonald that he will not participate in this ICC tournament.
It was also reported by Australian media that star pacer Josh Hazlewood will not be participating in the tournament either. Josh is also dealing with a side strain injury, and as a result, he has not regained full fitness. With these two players out of the tournament, there could be significant changes in the Australian team. Before the tournament, Australia will need to appoint a new captain.
Given the situation, Pat Cummins' absence could be a major blow for the Australian team. Under Cummins' leadership, Australia has achieved success in all past tournaments. His leadership led to victories in the World Test Championship, the ODI World Cup, and the recent Border-Gavaskar Test series. The Australian team has performed exceptionally well under his captaincy. However, Cummins' absence from the Champions Trophy will be a major setback for Australia.
