The veteran player is preparing to leave the captaincy after the World Cup
veteran player: Australia captain Pat Cummins said his aim is to return from the three-match ODI series against India in late September before the World Cup. During the 5th Ashes Test against England from 27 to 31 July at The Oval, Cummins fractured his wrist and was advised six weeks’ rest. The fast bowler will undoubtedly be unable to participate in South Africa’s 5-match ODI series, which runs from September 7 to 17. On September 22, 24, and 27, Australia will play three one-day internationals against India. Cummins may also quit the captaincy of the ODI team after the World Cup.

Pat Cummins said that I will go to South Africa for the last leg of the series, but our eyes are on the ODI against India before the World Cup. The injury should not worsen. In a few more weeks, the wrist will be completely healed. The Australian captain is hopeful that he will be ready to lead the team in the ODI World Cup to be held in India from October 5 to November 19. He also said that after the World Cup, he may review his role as ODI captain. It is well known that Australia, led by Cummins, defeated Team India in the World Test Championship final.
Mitchell Marsh is the best option
According to Pat Cummins, we have discussed a few issues relating to the ODI captaincy. We will check it in the World Cup. He said that Mitchell Marsh, who was appointed as the captain of Australia’s T20 team. Is the right choice to take over the ODI captaincy. “The good thing is we have some options,” Cummins said. If Mitchell Marsh is captaining the T20s then he is definitely the main option. He is a wonderful person off the field. He works extremely hard as a player. To travel with him is enjoyable.
Pat Cummins took over the captaincy of Australia’s ODI team after Aaron Finch stepped down last year. As a result, Cummins has only been able to lead Australia in two of the team’s six games since that time. Because of the death of his mother, he missed the game against England to give Josh Hazlewood an opportunity. Earlier this year, he also missed the three-match ODI series against India. Steve Smith then led the team.
