3 Players Who Can Be Australia's ODI. Captain After Aaron Finch

Australia skipper Aaron Finch recently announced his retirement from ODI cricket and gave a big shock to many Australian and global cricket fans. The 35-year-old player said that he will now only play in T20Is. Aaron Finch was nominated as skipper in April 2019 and led the team quite successfully for the last 3 years.

Under his captainship, Australia also won the T20I World Cup 2021 last year. Aaron Finch’s ouster has put a big task ahead of Australian selectors to pick a new ODI captain for the national team. There are a few potential players who can be picked as Australia’s next ODI captain. Here we talk about 3 players who can replace Aaron Finch as the next ODI captain for Australia.

3 Players Who Can Replace Aaron Finch As The Next ODI Captain For Australia

1. Pat Cummins

Pat Cummins is the first name on this list. Cummins is currently the Test captain who took over the captaincy last year. He has also led the Test side well, bagging a brilliant 4-0 victory in The Ashes 2021-22 earlier this year.

Although selectors might be reluctant to give both the Test and ODI responsibility to Cummins, he is still one of the top players to overtake Aaron Finch as the new ODI skipper.

2. David Warner

David Warner is another player who can replace Aaron Finch as the new ODI skipper for Australia. While David Warner has been banned from captaincy roles due to his involvement in the sand-paper gate scandal, many former Aussie cricketers and experts have voiced opinions to revoke his captaincy ban.

Moreover, Warner has been highly successful with the bat for Australia in the white-ball format. For instance, he was the player of the series during ICC T20 World Cup 2021 that Australia won. Hence, selectors might revoke Warner’s ban and make him the new ODI skipper.

3. Glenn Maxwell

Glenn Maxwell is another player on this list. Maxwell is a regular member of the team in ODIs and T20Is. He has also played many match-winning knocks for the team and owns a long experience in the limited-overs format.

With over 127 ODIs and 87 T20Is under his belt, he is one of the most experienced players in the Australian team. Moreover, since he only plays in ODIs and T20Is, he can be a good ODI skipper as he does not have to focus on Tests. Hence, Maxwell is another good choice to replace Aaron Finch as the new skipper in ODIs.
