According to a report in The Age, the World Cup and WTC-winning duo was approached by an Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise informally. The report states that Cummins and Head were offered 10 million dollars (INR 58.2 crore approx.) to represent it in various T20 franchise tournaments, but they turned it down. It is understood that both Pat Cummins and Travis Head are committed towards representing Australia across formats.
It is understood that a move like this could play a big part in privatizing Australia's flagship T20 cricket league, the Big Bash, in order to invite private capital, but there has been no official word from Cricket Australia regarding this matter.
