Who is the best ODI captain

27th April 2003, 06:28 AM

Hmmmm tough on for me, but in my opinion I think Stephen Fleming has a lot of guts as a captain, and in my opinion he is the best!

27th April 2003, 07:01 AM

Ricky Ponting 's the best because he''s kewl, he's aussie and he is kewl agian!!

27th April 2003, 07:03 AM

rickt ponting definitely...

i don't really know too many captains :P

i realy only know jayasuriya, (he's nice)
fleming (i h8 him)
pollock (he's a showoff)
hussain (worst of all)

27th April 2003, 07:36 AM

Jayasuriya is not captan any more either is Pollock, either is Hussain! You only know 2 captains!!!

27th April 2003, 07:56 AM

really?

that's embarssing :lol:

so who r the new captains then?

27th April 2003, 08:59 AM

South Africa's Captain is Graeme Smith
Sri Lanka's Captain is Hashan Tillakaratne
England has not annouced it's new captain yet(I think, have to ask Andrew)

No, we haven't yet.
Probably one of Trescothick, Vaughan or Hollioake although Gile's name has also been mentioned.

andrew_nixon · 27th April 2003, 10:30 AM

I don't reckon it will be Hollioake. If he's not been good enough to get in the team in recent years, he's not good enough to be captain!

barmyarmy · 27th April 2003, 10:40 AM

He's been an excellent captain with Surrey and I reckon he's good enough to be in the team.

andrew_nixon · 27th April 2003, 10:41 AM

If he was good enough to be in the team, he'd have played in the World Cup.

I think Giles could be a good outside bet.

hollioake captain? :unsure: i've neva even heard of him.....wouldn't they be considereing knight?

andrew_nixon · 28th April 2003, 01:46 AM

Never heard of Adam Hollioake? He's been England one-day captain before.... Don't you remember his brother Ben, he (very sadly) died in a car crash in Australia last year.

They wouldn't be considering Knight for 2 reasons:

1: He's NO experience of captaincy at any level
2: He's just retired from ODIs
