Subscriber only Australia is preparing to drop multiple players in the fallout from a record 53-run T20 loss to New Zealand - but under-fire captain Aaron Finch is safe. Finch, 34, looked sharp in the nets at New Zealand's High Performance Centre in Christchurch last week and batted promisingly in the Aussies' centre-wicket match simulation scenarios, before driving his second ball straight to Devon Conway in Christchurch on Monday. But coach Andrew McDonald does not want Finch batting in fear on the back of his first big shot flying to backward point and declared there was no reason to think the skipper wouldn't lead Australia at this year's Twenty20 World Cup in India.

Steve Smith’s reluctance to publicly endorse teammate Pat Cummins as a captain suggests the batsman is eyeing another stint as Australian skipper, according to some pundits.
Last week Cummins was unveiled as the NSW captain for the 2021 Marsh Cup, which was interpreted as a clue he was being primed for higher honours when Tim Paine calls it quits.
Cummins made his captaincy debut against Victoria at North Sydney Oval on Monday, with the Blues securing a comfortable 59-run victory.

The West Indies have pulled off a miraculous run chase against Bangladesh, with unknown debutant Mayers scoring an unbeaten double century in the fourth innings. Set an unlikely target of 395 for victory in Chattogram, the West Indies run chase started poorly, collapsing to 3/59. But Mayers combined with teammate Nkrumah Bonner for a critical 216-run partnership for the fourth wicket to bring the match back in the balance. As wickets tumbled at the other end, the 28-year-old Mayers slowly guided his side towards the mammoth target, securing the unlikely victory late on day five.
