MELBOURNE: Josh Inglis will captain Australia in the third ODI against Pakistan and the subsequent T20 series, filling in for the absent Pat Cummins and Mitchell Marsh.
Selectors chose Inglis, a wicketkeeper-batsman, over more experienced players like Glenn Maxwell, Adam Zampa, and Marcus Stoinis. Cummins, Australia's regular ODI captain, will miss the final match in Perth on Sunday to rest, along with Test players Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Marnus Labuschagne, and Steve Smith. T20 captain Marsh is currently on paternity leave.
