    "editor1": "<p><em>Sydney, Jan 1 - Australia speedster Pat Cummins has rubbished talks of his elevation as the future Test skipper while hailing the incumbent Tim Paine of doing a &quot;brilliant job&quot;.<\/em><br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nCummins, who starred with both bat and ball, taking career-best figures of 6\/27 in the second innings and registering another career-best 63 with the willow, albeit in a losing cause in the Boxing Day Test against India at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), drew calls from leg-spin legend Shane Warne that the 25-year-old pacer evokes captaincy material.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n&quot;I think it&#39;s pretty ridiculous at the moment,&quot; Cummins was quoted as saying by cricket.com.au. &quot;We&#39;ve obviously got &#39;Painey&#39; (Tim Paine) at the moment who is doing a brilliant job and I think it&#39;s his for a long time now.&quot;<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nCummins, who rose to No.3 on the ICC Test blowing rankings after his MCG haul of 9\/99, said he is more focussed on improving his individual game at the moment.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n&quot;I feel like I&#39;m too busy in the game bowling and when I&#39;m batting putting all my effort into that. And when I&#39;m not doing it I&#39;m usually off with the fairies trying to recover.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n&quot;So, I don&#39;t think I would make a very good captain at the moment,&quot; he added.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nCummins, however, did not rule out the possibility of appointing a fast bowler as the captain and in such a scenario has backed Josh Hazlewood for the vice captain&#39;s role.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n&quot;I think someone like Josh Hazlewood at the moment has an enhanced role as vice captain, he&#39;s always thinking about the game when he&#39;s out there fielding.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n&quot;When he&#39;s batting in the sheds he is always watching and thinking things through. Maybe it&#39;s different personalities, but I see no reason why a bowler can&#39;t be a captain,&quot; Cummins said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p>IANS<\/p>\r\n",
