When skipper Pat Cummins won the toss and decided to bowl first in the Cricket World Cup final in 2023 against an undefeated Indian team, he knew he was going against conventional wisdom. A fast bowler whose appointment to captaincy was a stroke of genius, Pat Cummins was a leader both on the field and off. Courage, Controversy, Conviction takes a bold look at ‘Captain Woke’ as he navigates the three-year journey in the limelight featuring his captaincy, his conscience and his controversies.
