Pat Cummins comments fuel ongoing David Warner baggy green mystery

Australian skipper Pat Cummins has poured fuel all over the saga surrounding the mysterious case of David Warner’s baggy greens.

We’re now reaching Home and Away levels of drama as the mysterious circumstances surrounding David Warner’s baggy greens adds a fresh chapter.

While the caps belonging to the Australian star have since found their way back into his hands, questions over how they went missing and returned still linger.

The drama kicked off in the days leading up to the third Test between Australia and Pakistan, Warner’s final Test appearance for the Aussies.

The retiring opener made a public plea on Tuesday for the safe return of a backpack that was said to have been removed from his luggage.

By Wednesday the Prime Minister had joined the chorus of those asking for the safe return of the treasured items.

Then on Thursday the baggy green was found, mysteriously located within the team hotel despite extensive searches in the days prior.

Social media users shared their scepticism over the baggy green’s miraculous return so soon after vanishing into thin air.

Those rumours have only been fuelled thanks to comments made by Australian skipper Pat Cummins following victory at the SCG on Saturday.

As he spoke to the media, he was asked about the bizarre circumstances that had unfolded when he insinuated there may be more to the situation than has been revealed.

“It’s probably not my story to tell,” Cummins said.

“Maybe talk to Davey.”

Warner then strolled into the post-match press conference, with the baggy green safely atop his head, and suggested questions should be asked of the team’s security.

“You’re going to have to ask security. I wish I’d played a prank like that,” he said.

“You’ll have to ask Frank [Dimasi] or Stu Bailey [security staff]. I literally got it handed to me and there was nothing [said to me]. That’s legitimate.”

Cricket Australia confirmed to news.com.au that the bag had simply been misplaced during transit, but the latest remarks now point to something else entirely.

While the baggy green drama stole the limelight, Warner put it behind him as he helped guide the Aussies to the 3-0 series whitewash.

Chasing a modest 130 for victory, Warner took on the Pakistan attack, blasting 57 in a 119-run partnership with Marnus Labuschagne.

Sadly his fairytale finish wasn’t to be as he was dismissed with Australia needing only 11 more runs, leaving Labuschagne and Steve Smith to take care of business.

Warner’s final on-field interview raised eyebrows as he recalled his start to the day ahead of his last Test innings.

“A casual walk up to the local cafe and get a coffee with the young one, and then I got into the car and packed a wine or two,” Warner said.

“I shouldn’t say that too loud. I’ll get in trouble.

“I felt happy and really proud. To come here in front of your home crowd with the support they have shown me and the Australian cricket team over my last decade of my career, I can’t thank them enough.

“Without you guys we can’t do what we do and it’s much appreciated.”
