Most expensive player during IPL 2020 auction, Cummins was bought by Kolkata Knight Riders for a whopping INR 15.50 crore. While the auction had happened in December 2019, Cummins bought the new house in 2021 to have a massive upgrade from his last residence.
Readers must note that the amount at which Cummins bought the mansion was more than double the previous record. As expected, he made a lot of customization to his new villa as per the needs. Cummins is living with his wife Becky Boston and son Billy Cummins in the house.

The property has five large bedrooms with world-class amenities spread across a 670 sqm block. There is a heated mosaic-tile pool as well in the garden.
