Joe Root lashed out after Pat Cummins dismissed him once again. Here's the 13 times it's happened

When Andrew McDonald announced Pat Cummins wouldn't be involved in The Ashes again this series, part of Joe Root must have breathed a sigh of relief.

On day four of the third Test, Cummins proved once again he has the star batter's measure, kissing the edge of his bat to dismiss him for the 13th time.

Australia’s captain, the ultimate flat-wicket operator, roared into the third Ashes Test like he had never been away

On a redundancy scale, attending the Adelaide Test and noting that Pat Cummins was good is in the realm of noting that the Torrens was wet or the cathedral was spiky. Still, on day four, any one of those obvious things might justifiably have caught an observer’s eye.

Perhaps it’s more notable just how natural, how inevitable, it felt that Cummins was indeed bowling at his best in his first match back after a stress fracture cost him the first two Tests of this Ashes series and any match preparation before that.

How 'inspirational' Cummins ended his 158-day layoff

A fast-tracked and carefully-managed recovery from a bone stress injury looks to have been timed to precision

Pat Cummins zips one past Zak Crawley and there's hardly a murmur. No, the heat has not yet sizzled the Adelaide Oval crowd; until Cummins reaches his arms out wide and carries on his follow-through all the way to Alex Carey, it is not clear that Australia's skipper has, in fact, just dismissed Crawley.

The wider angle, the extra bounce, the sliver of nip away, a shave of the right-hander's outside edge. Pat Cummins, who has not bowled a ball in a game for 158 days, is back with the type of perfect dismissal only Pat Cummins could pull off.
