Tim Paine has not gone yet, CA has not discussed Steve Smith captaincy yet: Australia selector Trevor Hohns

India Today  

Cricket Australia’s chairman of selectors Trevor Hohns has clarified that all rumours regarding Steve Smith’s return to captaincy can be put on hold. Hohns reminded everyone that current Australia Test captain Tim Paine has not yet left the stage and hence CA hasn’t discussed the possibility yet. It happened as an eventuality to the Cricket Australia's decision of stripping the then captain Steve Smith of his leadership role due to his involvement in the Cape Town ball-tampering scandal known as the ‘Sandpaper Gate’. According to CA’s chairman of selectors Trevor Hohns, Smith’s name didn’t even come up while discussing leadership roles.
