Just starting the first test v the Windies. It's on Talksport 2.

Good to see we are continuing on from where we left off last year. Crawley already out.

I’d like to see James Vince given the role. New era and all that, why not

Too much time is spent thinking about the captain. Pick the eleven best players and then choose the best from them. I think probably Broad in the short term might be the way to go.

I agree with Broad in the short term. Get us through this Summer at least (possibly even all the way through to the end of the Ashes the following Summer), then see where we are

How can it be Broad? He's just been dropped for the Windies tour?

Because I wouldn't have dropped him and I suspect he won't be dropped by the new coach.

Anyway, not sure what the Windies has got to do with it? They tried something different in the Windies and it failed miserably. Mark my words, Broad will be playing in the 1st Test of the Summer (and very likely most/all of them this Summer). Make him interim captain whilst the new coach works out where to fcuking start with building a Test team from the ashes of Test cricket caused by the ECB's negligence/mismanagement

But the captain isnt just a captain, he is a defacto selector, chooses the bowlers, chooses the fields, you can't just give it to the best player, thats what we did with Root and it showed against good Test captains.

A few of my mates are in the 'Vince should be captain' camp. The only thing is I don't think he's quire good enough to be a Test class batsman (am I even allowed to say 'batsman' any more? Who gives a fcuk, I'm saying it anyway) so that could cause a problem very quickly.

What a sorry mess. Round of applause for the ECB. People think the EFL are useless.....!!!

When I said choose the best from them I meant the best captain not the best player. Stokes should never be captain all rounders have too much to do, see what happened to Botham and Flintoff!

Ah, i see.

I would go the other way and get the best captain and get the best 10 around him. They can make up for him and he will get the best out of them.

He's not good enough. Doesnt warrant a place in a Test side.

Yeah can see the logic in that. I'd do that long term but this summer they desperately need some wins, pick the best eleven with Broad in charge!
