The England team is touring Australia to take part in the Ashes cricket series between Australia and England. There is to play in the Test series with 5 matches. The first match is scheduled for the 8th of next month in Brisbane.

In this case, Tim Payne, the current Test captain of the Australian team, has resigned from his captaincy for allegedly sending a pornographic message to a female employee. There is speculation as to who will lead the Australian team after him.

Former cricketer Gilchrist has said that ‘Bad Cummins should be the next captain of the Australian team’ as many cricket commentators have expressed their views.

Commenting on Bad Cummins, Gilchrist said, “Bad Cummins has grown to be an important part of the Australian team. Has developed a high level of ability about the game of cricket. He also has experience. ”

Earlier, England fast bowler James Anderson had expressed his support for Pat Cummins.

Like other countries, the Australian team management is reluctant to appoint bowlers as captains. The batsmen themselves have mostly been captains.

If so, this will be the second time a bowler has been named captain of the Australian cricket team, following Ray Lindwall.

Steve Smith, who was already the captain, has expressed confidence that he can be re-appointed as captain. However, he was banned from playing cricket for two years for damaging the ball. If he is re-appointed as captain, it is doubtful whether the fans and players will accept him.

It is noteworthy that in the case of Australia the responsibility of captaining the Australian cricket team is considered to be parallel to the positions held there next to the post of Prime Minister.
