That is not a possibility at the moment - Pat Cummins on David Warner as he seeks a vice-captain to share leadership duties

However, the 29-year-old is open to supporting any move to reverse Warner's ban. With retiring from ODI cricket, Warner was one of the leading contenders to succeed in the captaincy role. Cricket Australia is currently considering rewriting the organization's code of conduct, which could see Warner free of a lifetime leadership ban, imposed after the ball-tampering saga in 2018. Pat Cummins has been named Australia's 27th ODI captain Pat Cummins has been named Australia's 27th ODI captain Speaking on SEN's Whately, Cummins believes Australia's multi-format players have the potential to step up as captain, if required. The right-arm speedster felt that workload needed to be managed series by series, stating: "I think in cricket it’s always been that if someone’s the captain they’re the captain full-time and it’s all-encompassing, but I think we’re moving slightly away from that. I think in our current set-up we’ve got various multi-format players that we’ll have need to manage through different series as well. Obviously, that (Warner as vice-captain) is not a possibility at the moment. "We’re really happy with the other leaders in the team that can be in a bit more of a titled role. But I welcome any change to the current situation with David and certainly down the track us players and the staff around kind of internally would have no qualms with him stepping up if needed." Cummins, who is also in-charge of the Test side, will become the first fast bowler to lead the Australian men's team in white-ball cricket. He will also captain the Men in Yellow at the ODI World Cup in 2023.

He added: "I would have (said no) 12 months ago. I think it’s been a bit of a journey, it’s probably a slightly different style. We’re 12 months out from a World Cup, I think there’s 14 ODI games. Speaking to the selectors and I’m sure we’ll manage through those games to get to the World Cup, it was a no brainer. I think the (most exciting thing is the) World Cup is just around the corner."Cummins and the Aussie ODI team will be in action soon when a three-game series kicks off against England in Adelaide, Sydney and Melbourne!
