Australian cricket fans will surely miss Pat Cummins in the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The Aussie captain has been ruled out of the tournament due to an injury, but that hasn’t stopped him from grabbing attention in the most entertaining way possible.
Instead of staying out of the limelight, Cummins has become the talk of the town with his funny one-liners and witty remarks. He recently appeared in Prime Video’s latest ad campaign, Go Full Cricket, and his hilarious take on sledging has fans in stitches.
Pat Cummins’ Unexpected Side
Known for his fast bowling and strong leadership, Cummins has now shown his humorous side in this viral campaign. The ad features him practicing sledging in front of a mirror, delivering hilarious insults to himself. With a perfect mix of sarcasm and self-deprecating humor, he takes a dig at everything—from his own appearance to his fellow cricketers.
In one moment, he looks at his reflection and jokes, “You only wear those pads to hide your chicken legs.” In another, he comments on his own facial hair, saying, “Your mustache is so stupid.”
And of course, no cricket sledge would be complete without a classic: “You allergic to cherries, mate?”

- To Virat Kohli: “Hey Kohli, I’ve never seen you bat this slowly.”
- To Quinton de Kock: “More like Quinton de Block.”
His effortless humor and comic timing have made the campaign a huge hit, proving that even off the field, Cummins knows how to entertain.
Fans React to Cummins’ Absence:
While fans are disappointed that Cummins won’t be playing in the Champions Trophy, his lighthearted ad has somewhat made up for it. His ability to laugh at himself and make fun of others in a friendly way has won hearts all over the cricket world.
The Champions Trophy 2025, set to begin on February 19 in Pakistan, will go on without the Aussie skipper. But thanks to this viral campaign, Pat Cummins has already made sure he won’t be forgotten anytime soon.
