“They might be a little bit short of sleep, but they’re a class side and a few of their squad members for the one-dayers weren’t in the T20s as well, which I’m sure will create a bit of impact, but they’re riding high,” Cummins said.

“They obviously had a great T20 campaign, so they’ll be strong no doubt, even if a bit tired.”

While disappointed not to make the finals and defend the T20 title they won in Dubai last year, Cummins believes Australia’s performance wasn’t as bad as it was portrayed.

“I feel some of the commentary has probably been a bit dramatised,” Cummins said. “If you look back, we did just lose one game.

“We might not have played our best cricket but if a few different things fell our way we still might have been in the finals and anything could have happened.

“I think we sting a little bit knowing that we didn’t play our best, and especially that first game against New Zealand made it tough for ourselves.

“But I feel like we’re a good side in any format. Hopefully we can show it out here with England now.”

The next major white-ball campaign is the 50-over World Cup in India a year from now.

“The last probably 12 to 24 months really has been a big focus on T20 cricket in white ball. Now that focus shifts,” Cummins said.
