If any cricketer's not inspired by Cummins, he is in wrong game": Ian Chappell lauds WC-winning Aussie skipper
Pat Cummins is indeed having a time of his life as Australia's captain. After being appointed as ODI skipper following Aaron Finch's retirement and serving as Test captain, Cummins has led Australia to the ICC World Test Championship title, retention of the Ashes urn against England and record-extending sixth ICC Cricket World Cup title in a matter of months. In this brilliant run as a captain, there are hidden plenty of praiseworthy contributions as a fast bowler and a batter in clutch situations.

MS Dhoni’s IPL season evokes shades of Mike Brearley
MS Dhoni's performance in IPL 2023 has evoked shades of Mike Brearley, with his astute execution as captain keeping the Chennai Super Kings successful. Dhoni has faced just 62 deliveries and scored 104 runs, with all the players in the Chennai batting order firing, meaning he has not had the opportunity or demand to construct an innings of any longevity. Dhoni has batted nearly all the time in the death overs, and as a result, his strike rate is 168 runs per 100 balls, a significant bump over his IPL career average of 131.
