    A lesser known stat about Ricky Ponting as captain, is in the 42 tests he lead after Warne and McGrath retired, Australia won 21 of them which is 50%. Lots of great captains leading great sides have win percentages of only slightly more than 50%, and Ponting did this with a team in rapid decline.

    Some excellent points raised by Vaughan and Ponting, and surprisingly, the most pertinent one was raised by Swann: not to make the best player of your team the captain, because he may not have the personality of a captain. That said though, why isn't someone like Steve Waugh in this panel instead of Swann?

    • @mrkipling2201

      Probably because Swann was working for BT sport and McGrath wasn’t in the 2017/18 Ashes series.

    Mike Brearley is a great example of someone who was perfect for captaincy. He wasn’t the best player but he’s one of the best captains ever. His man management skills were 2nd to none and that’s the main thing needed to be a great captain.

  • @trnchawla

    I disliked Rickey Ponting when I saw him hitting Indian bowlers all over the park in 2003 world cup final against India. And the dislike continued to increase until the sydney 2008 test against India. After watching him commenting at various places and in master class videos, am a big fan of him. He is truly a person to whom every youngster should listen to.

    • @trnchawla
      @trnchawla Před 4 lety

      @Muttley To me he was on wrong side on certain incidents like bad umpiring and rude behaviour towards Indian batter and bowler. In 2003 I was in 8th standard and did not liked him for so many years only due to that match.

    • @trnchawla

    I mean I know Waugh had a ludicrously talented side at his disposal, but a 72% win rate is nevertheless completely absurd.
    Also funny that Swann's read on Root and the England captaincy turned out to be somewhat prophetic.

    • @Bernie8330
      @Bernie8330 Před 5 měsíci

      South Africa and Pakistan (post 1999) had significantly declined by the time Steve Waugh was captain and from 2000 onwards the West Indies were minnows. Under Taylor, Australia beat considerably stronger sides.

      well i use to rate dhoni's captaincy at the beginning which includes test cricket. i think overall he was a great limited overs captain. in terms of test cricket, dhoni started getting great players in his team when he started captaincy. his style of captaincy worked well in india. in terms of overseas, he tried to be too unorthodox which worked well at home with his gameplan and field settings, but was not effective overseas. with the new stock of fast bowlers india started producing at the end, he was not good enough to make them be effective. thats why he knew he had to give kohli the captaincy
