“I remember at the time thinking, if I hang it outside off there might be a chance to nick it. I’ve seen it about 1,000 times in the last four years. It was a fantastic Test match and the first two in this series have been fantastic,” Cummins told reporters.
“I’m sure that (Headingley) memory will be brought up quite a bit, just like 2005 was brought up at Edgbaston, but we’ve well and truly moved past that” he further added.
England announced their playing XI for the Headingley Test. James Anderson was dropped as Ollie Pope was ruled out from the test of the series. England added Moeen Ali, Mark Wood and Chris Woakes to their XI. Cummins, on the other hand, did not reveal the playing XI.
