Not Ash Gardner or Beth Mooney! Lanning nominates 22-year-old as next Australian women's ODI captain

Former Australian captain Meg Lanning picked Phoebe Litchfield as the next ODI captain for the defending champions, when and after Alyssa Healy finishes up. Healy already mentioned that she will not be there at the next Women's World Cup after the semi-final loss to India and like Australia has done in the past, they might want to blood-in the new captain four years in advance to give her time to settle into the role and be attuned to the consistent playing group in that period.
