I Feel Privileged And Honoured To Captain Australia, Says Inglis
With Mitchell Marsh: After being named as Australia’s captain for the third ODI and subsequent T20Is against Pakistan, wicketkeeper-batter Josh Inglis said he feels really privileged and honoured to be entrusted with the leadership job.
Inglis will become Australia's 30th ODI captain when the side plays Pakistan in Perth, as regular skipper Pat Cummins goes to prepare for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. With Mitchell Marsh on paternity leave, he will also become the 14th player to lead Australia in T20Is when they play against Pakistan in Brisbane, Sydney and Hobart from November 14-18.
“It is thrilling, I'm really looking forward to it. I’m obviously stepping in for Mitch and Pat who are out - Mitch is on paternity leave and Pat's preparing for the Test summer. I’m really looking forward to the challenge and to do it in Perth is going to be really nice.”
