- Test captain meets with other influential figures
- Important to ‘get around’ embattled coach, says Paine
Test skipper Tim Paine has backed Justin Langer to continue after some “tough and robust conversations” with Cricket Australia and is now calling on his teammates to rally around the under-pressure coach.
Player unease and public debate about Langer prompted a meeting between Paine, limited-overs captain Aaron Finch, vice-captain Pat Cummins plus CA heavyweights Earl Eddings and Nick Hockley.
