Pat Cummins, the Australian Test captain, is preparing for the line against India, which kicks off in late November, with a quick return to the Sheffield Shield.
Cummins, who recently completed an MLC stay in the USA, has been rested from Australia's white-ball journey of Scotland and England second quarter.

Cummins, who has only made nine looks for New South Wales, past played the Sheffield Shield in February 2021. In early November, a Pakistan ODI line could be played as a precursor to the Test games.
"Ronnie [coach Andrew McDonald] called me the other day and said we need to talk about this," Cummins told News Corp. "I prefer to go a little bit fresher but definitely play some cricket going in.
" So I'd say it's either two or three OD Is, plus a Shield]game ] or maybe just some Shield, maybe some NSW one-day stuff. I imagine form of delayed October/early November will be when I start playing building up for the Assessments."
New South Wales will experience Queensland on November 1 and Victoria on October 20; however, this game overlaps with Pakistan's opening of the ODI line.
Cummins originally stated to ESPNcricinfo that it had been planned to miss the England trip and that the next few weeks would be focused on making sure his body was ready for the upcoming workload, which will also include the Champions Trophy in Pakistan in February.
" I'll have a good six or eight days off ball where I'll get in the treadmill every day, do some going, and get some power back into my brain, "he said.
Before the start of the global period, New South Wales might have to reserve Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood for the T20Is and Josh Hazlewood, who may play in the entire collection. Before facing India, Nathan Lyon is expected to play at least two games.
The Sheffield Shield, which features two shells, is expected to feature the majority of the pitchers, while those who are not in the ODI team against Pakistan may have a chance to play in another match. In Mackay and Melbourne, Australia A plays two four-day games against India A.
