Pat Cummins said, ‘Some batsmen had plans to play Sri Lankan bowlers, but due to lack of understanding of the pitch, they could not bat according to their plan. Coming to Sri Lanka and winning a match is not an easy thing. Teams must come here and play the game.
We lost the match no matter what. We will learn a lot from here and will not repeat those mistakes in the coming series.

SL vs AUS: Our team made a lot of mistakes: Pat Cummins
According to Pat Cummins, Australia had batted very well on the first day of the second Test match. However, he believes that his team could not touch the 400-run mark due to the poor performance of the middle-order batters.
Pat Cummins further said, ‘Our team made a lot of mistakes. The way we had batted on the first day, we could have comfortably touched the 400-run mark, but because of some batsmen, we could not do it. No other batter supported Steve Smith. But it is okay that a person learns from mistakes only. We will work hard for the next series.
