Sydney: It is still undecided who will lead the Australian ODI team. There were reports that Pat Cummins would take over the captaincy, but it is reported that he is not interested. Aaron Finch, who recently stepped down, was named after David Warner. But age is the factor holding Warner back. The names of Glenn Maxwell and Steve Smith are also under consideration.
But now Warner has expressed his desire to become a hero. “Right now my focus is on playing cricket. I don’t care what people say. There are only misunderstandings that can be solved over a beer together. You know how I feel when we drink beer together. I want to be the captain, but I haven’t had any talks with anyone about it. But I hope so. “If the captaincy comes to me at the last minute, it will be a great honor and a blessing,” Warner said.
