Lanning nominates left-field pick as next Australia captain

Sydney, Nov 7 (UNI) Australia great Meg Lanning believes young opener Phoebe Litchfield can beat an excellent field of strong candidates and become Alyssa Healy's successor as the next Aussie ODI captain.
It was Healy who took the top job from Lanning when the two-time ICC Women's Cricket World Cup winner retired from international cricket at the end of 2023, and the current Australian ODI captain is edging slowly towards the end of her career, given she is already 35 years old.
Lanning spoke in depth about Australia's recent Cricket World Cup campaign on the most recent episode of The ICC Review, and she acknowledged the long list of potential candidates the Aussies have at their disposal, who could take over from Healy in the future.
