The right-arm pacer picked up 12 wickets in the three-match Test series against Pakistan.<br \/>\nIt is to be noted that no fast bowling captain has taken more wickets in a three-match away series. The former Pakistan left-arm pacer Wasim Akram who bagged 12 wickets in a three-match Test series against England in 1996 is the other fast bowling captain to achieve the feat.<br \/>\nPat Cummins had a tough time at the start of the series as the pitch offered no support for the fast bowlers. The 28-year old managed to pick up only one wicket in the first Test of the series.<br \/>\nThe skipper of Australia bounced back in the second Test and bowled well for his three wickets in the Karachi Test. The captain led from the front in the series decider in Lahore.<br \/>\nPakistan were in a comfortable position after lunch on day 3 when suddenly Pat Cummins started to reverse swing the ball.<br \/>\nPakistan lost their last five wickets for just four runs courtesy of a five-wicket haul by the skipper. Cummins picked up eight wickets in the last Test of the series and turned it around alongside teammate Nathan Lyon who also got five-for in the second innings.<br \/>\nCummins was declared Man of the Match for his game-changing performance, whereas, Usman Khwaja was given the Player of the Series award for scoring 496 runs in five innings at an average of 165.33, including two centuries and two half-centuries.<br \/>\nAustralia won the match by 115 runs to take the series 1-0. The ODI\u2019s will start from March 29. Whereas the only T20I will be played on April 5 at Gaddafi Stadium Lahore.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LAHORE Australian captain Pat Cummins has broken the record of former Pakistan captain Wasim Akram.
