Australia’s Star opener and wicketkeeper Alyssa Healy expressed her desire to lead Australian Women’s Team.
Regular Skipper Meg Lanning took an indefinite break from cricket, and vice Captain Rachael Haynes announced her retirement from international cricket recently, which has opened the doors for a new skipper.
“I’ve been vice-captain in the Australian side before and that’s been a great opportunity, but yeah, if the call did come my way there’s no possibility I’d turn it down. I think it would be an unbelievable honor and its something that I would really take the challenge and hopefully leave a mark on the game where I can,” Healy was quoted as saying by ABC News.
I’m sure someone is going to step up take the reins:
“I’ve given a little bit of thought, I mean it would be rude not to as one of the senior plays in the side, about whom they might lean on to take over the reins. But, from my point of view I’m looking forward to the WBBL first, and if that phone call comes then you beauty,” Healy added.
“There’s so many leaders within our Australian team and Australian squad at the moment and obviously Meg’s on a bit of a break at the moment, so hopefully she’ll come back and be as fresh as a daisy and want to play a part in the side. But I guess from our point of view, I’m sure someone is going to step up take the reins and do a fantastic job,” she further stated.
