Australian cricket captain Pat Cummins has addressed the elephant in the room for the first time since Justin Langer's messy exit as national coach.

Perth Live host Oliver Peterson asked Cummins how his relationship is with JL, after his "coward comments" towards some former players.

"We are good, I look forward to catching up with him this week... you know we chat a bit and he has been fantastic for our group over the last four years so yeah, the boys are looking forward to seeing him," Cummins told Oly.
