Steve Smith’s reluctance to publicly endorse teammate Pat Cummins as a captain suggests the batsman is eyeing another stint as Australian skipper, according to some pundits.
Last week Cummins was unveiled as the NSW captain for the 2021 Marsh Cup, which was interpreted as a clue he was being primed for higher honours when Tim Paine calls it quits.
Cummins made his captaincy debut against Victoria at North Sydney Oval on Monday, with the Blues securing a comfortable 59-run victory.
