Test skipper Pat Cummins has backed the prospect of David Warner taking up a one-day international captaincy position.
Warner, a former Test and ODI vice-captain, could be set for a sensational return to leadership after the Cricket Australia board requested for the head of integrity to amend the integrity code. "The amendment would allow a person to request a penalty that they had accepted be reviewed after an appropriate period of time," a Cricket Australia statement said."There's a few barriers at the moment, but certainly if they were removed there wouldn't be any qualms from any of the playing or coaching group," Cummins said."The style of just about everyone in the team is really similar.
While Finch retired from ODI cricket in September, Warner's opening batting partner committed to the T20 World Cup and could continue in the shortest form beyond the tournament.The tournament in India, a place Warner has grown fond of through his Indian Premier League commitments and Australian tours, will likely be the left-hander's final 50-over World Cup campaign."He's a leader around our group. Always has been, always will be.
