In the past four months, the former Test opener has guided Australia to its maiden T20 World Cup title and a dominating 4-0 Ashes series win at home. The white-ball skipper said the governing body of the game in the country has a process to follow and he is still not sure what the outcome is going to be.
“Whatever happens from the Cricket Australia side of things, that is out of our control as players, but his contract is up. No doubt, there will be some talk there. “I know Patty [Cummins] and myself might be contacted about that. But I actually have got no idea – I have never been in a leadership role when somebody’s coaching contract is up.
“So, like I said, he has done an unbelievable job. To see how good the environment has been through the T20 World Cup, then throughout the Ashes, is a credit to everyone there,” Finch added.
