‘She’s here’: Pat Cummins, wife Becky announce birth of baby girl Edi

Australia cricket team captain Pat Cummins and wife Becky were blessed with a second child as they shared the news of their new born baby girl, Edi.

“She’s here.Our beautiful baby girl, Edi … Words can’t describe how overjoyed & full of love we feel right now.” Becky Cummins shared on her Instagram account.

Notably, Cummins had taken paternity leave for the birth of Edi and as a result is not leading the Kangaroos during the ongoing Sri Lanka series. The Australia skipper has been vocal about the need to prioritize family time along with cricket.

Speaking in October, Cummins had said, “I missed a big chunk [of son Albie’s early days] last time and I want to work out how we can spend a bit more time at home for that initial period this time around,”

“Within reason, no one is ever going to bat an eyelid if someone needs to put their family first…We’re playing cricket, it’s not the end of the world, so we want people to have long, successful careers for Australia, and you can’t just ask them to put their life on hold to go tour the world and forget about everything else. We’re pretty open when it comes to family.” the Australian captain had added.
