Cummings was born at Dunedin in 1885. He worked as a timber merchant. His older brother George Cummings played cricket for Otago and Auckland.[2] Cummings made his senior debut for the Otago side in a match against the touring Australians at Carisbrook in March 1910. Opening the bowling, he took the first two Australian wickets to fall in the match. His only other first-class match for the side came later in the same year in a Christmas fixture against Canterbury.[3]
Cummings died at Christchurch in 1951. He was aged 66.[1]
