Pat Cummins was supposed to be rusty on ODI comeback. Albeit he's the reigning World Cup-winning captain, he was expected to be a tad indifferent. It's because he hadn't played a single ODI since leading Australia to glory in the World Cup on Indian soil last year.

Australia narrowly defeated Pakistan by two wickets in a tense first One Day International at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, taking a 1-0 lead in the three-match series.Chasing a target of 204, Australia found themselves in a precarious position at 185/8.

After Australia's captain dug his team out of trouble with the bat in the first ODI against Pakistan, Mitchell Starc says Pat Cummins should be bumped up the batting order.
