“I won’t be there!” Healy said when asked about Australia’s plans for the next World Cup. “Oh, I think that’s the beauty of this next cycle. We’re going to see that unfold.

But I think our one-day cricket is probably going to shift a little bit again. We did so much right, we’ll learn, grow, and get better.“
