sscomp32 Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 I was watching match point and warnie said Baz and Clarke are the 2 best captains currently. I agree completely about Baz but i am quite confused about clarke. Your thoughts? :hmmm:
sscomp32 Posted June 5, 2015 Author Posted June 5, 2015 Baz :two_thumbs_up: 2nd best? I made a wrong poll :wall: Should have directly asked who is the 2nd best captain. Just no competition for 1st spot. :giggle:
BeautifulGame Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Clarke is a poor attacking Captain .All others (Dhoni Cook Mathews Misbah) are very poor defensive captains .So Clarke is better than them Even Baz is only a decent captain just very positive IMO.Smith is the best captain in test cricket in recent times
Old guy Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Clarke is a poor attacking Captain .All others (Dhoni Cook Mathews Misbah) are very poor defensive captains .So Clarke is better than them Even Baz is only a decent captain just very positive IMO.Smith is the best captain in test cricket in recent times yep ..smith was best..he knew when to defend and attack and it paid big time in away tours

BeautifulGame Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Steve Smith ? :blink: IMO he is not good, Didnt look anything special, too defensive in the 3rd and 4th test v IND . Graeme Smith
sscomp32 Posted June 5, 2015 Author Posted June 5, 2015 No South Africa one :--D Graeme Smith Oh Yes. He was the best from recent memory. :two_thumbs_up:
sourab10forever Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 If its about aggressiveness... Virat will be right up there soon.
BeautifulGame Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 If its about aggressiveness... Virat will be right up there soon. Its more about tactical intelligence than aggression .That's why Fleming was one of the best ever captain
HippoSucks Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Clarke is the best captain right now (not including Graeme Smith of course since he is retired...). McCullum is overly aggressive and while this tactic may work against currently weak teams like England, it won't work against Australia or South Africa.

HippoSucks Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 And Clarke's tactic couldnt work overseas in countries like England India or Pak Captaincy alone doesn't win or lose matches. If the players were unable to play in those conditions (along with some other factors like losing the toss in UAE) then there is nothing the captain can do about it.
Scarves Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Actually been impressed with every captain bar Cook. Amla is a lot more aggressive than I thought he would be. Clarke is Clarke, Mathews is Mathews, McCullum is a bit iffy. Ramdin is okay, Misbah is smart, Kohli no idea yet. In short lolCook
