    Australian cricket captain Pat Cummins reckons he's on track to return for the second Ashes Test in Brisbane in four weeks' time, but has conceded playing through the rest of the five-test series unchanged could be difficult

    Australian cricket captain Pat Cummins reckons he's on track to return for the second Ashes Test in Brisbane in four weeks' time, but has conceded playing through the rest of the five-test series unchanged could be difficult


    Cummins has progressed to bowling off a three-quarter run up as he plots a meticulous return from a back injury that has sidelined him since July.

    There is an eight-day gap built in between the second and third Tests, but only four-day gaps between the third, fourth and fifth Tests.
