Josh Inglis Interim Captain for Australia's White-Ball Teams

Josh Inglis has been appointed as the interim captain for Australia in both the T20I series and the final ODI against Pakistan, stepping in for regular captains who are unavailable due to Test preparations and paternity leave. Inglis takes over from Test captain Pat Cummins, who, along with other Test players like Steve Smith and Mitchell Starc, will miss these matches to focus on the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy against India. Inglis, who is highly regarded for his leadership skills, will be supported by experienced players such as Glenn Maxwell and Adam Zampa. With Inglis leading, Australia aims to secure the ODI series and prepare for the T20s without their Test squad members. The selection of Inglis marks him as the 30th ODI and 14th T20I captain for Australia. This decision underscores the selectors' confidence in his tactical acumen and ability to lead the team effectively.
