Australia's Test captain Pat Cummins has remarked on the 'huge advantage' India enjoys as it remains stationed in Dubai for the Champions Trophy.

While India plays all of its matches in Dubai, other teams are traveling back and forth across Pakistan, where the tournament is operating under a hybrid model due to India's refusal to travel there over security concerns.

The Indian team has triumphed in matches against Bangladesh and Pakistan, ensuring their place in the semifinals next month. Cummins, sidelined by an ankle injury, is looking to return to cricket for the upcoming IPL season.
