In what can only be described as a moment filled with joy and new beginnings, Australian cricket captain Pat Cummins and his wife Becky have announced the arrival of their second child, a beautiful baby girl named Edi. This heartwarming news comes amidst Cummins’ absence from the cricket field due to both personal commitments and an unfortunate injury, marking a significant moment in the lives of the Cummins family and the Australian cricket community.
The arrival of Edi
On February 7, 2025, Becky took to Instagram to share the delightful news with the world. “She’s here. Our beautiful baby girl, Edi. Words can’t describe how overjoyed & full of love we feel right now,” she captioned a black-and-white photo of herself cuddling the newborn.
The couple, already parents to their son Albie, welcomed Edi into their lives with open arms, showcasing their family’s love and togetherness in the most endearing way.
Pat Cummins’ commitment to family
Cummins, known not only for his prowess on the cricket pitch but also for his advocacy for a balanced life, has prioritized his family during this special time. He missed the Australian team’s Test series against Sri Lanka to be present for Edi’s birth. This decision reflects his earlier statements where he expressed a desire to spend more time at home, especially after missing a significant portion of his son Albie’s early days due to cricket commitments.

No Cummins in the Champions Trophy 2025
However, this joyous occasion is tinged with a bit of disappointment for cricket fans worldwide. Cummins has already been officially ruled out of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 due to an ankle injury that he sustained during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against India. His absence from this prestigious tournament is a significant blow to the Australian team, as Cummins has been instrumental in leading the side to numerous victories with his strategic captaincy and formidable bowling.
