After the retirement of Aaron Finch from ODI cricket, there has been confusion for several days about who will be the captain of the ODI cricket team of Australia. But in the end David Warner is likely to lead the national team. There has also been talking of revising Cricket Australia’s disciplinary code. And in the meantime, his teammate Pat Cummins, Australia’s test captain, wanted to share the responsibility with Warner.
After Aaron Finch retired from 50-over cricket last month, many wanted to see Pat Cummins as the captain. Then he refused the proposal. Meanwhile, the board is thinking of making Warner the captain. At that time, Cummins expressed his desire to share the responsibility with Warner.
In this context, Cummins said, “I have no objection to sharing responsibility with Warner. It is not possible for anyone to play every match. So it would be nice to have someone’s help. Everyone in the team has the same philosophy. We have many leaders in the group.
Warner was banned for his scandal of the ball-tampering. And because of this obstacle, he cannot lead the team. However, Cricket Australia also announced the revision of the disciplinary code in the meeting. Cummins also feels that there will be no more obstacles for Warner to lead after the amendment, “There are still some obstacles. But if the ban is lifted, I don’t think anyone will object to preventing Warner from leading. Warner’s captaincy is very interesting.”
However, it depends on the board’s decision to assign the two together or not. The Australian Test captain can only share the responsibility with his teammate Warner if the board agrees. Cricket lovers are now looking at what the board decides. Currently, Cricket Australia is busy with the T20 World Cup at home.
