KP for captain!
what could go wrong?

Who captains instead? I remember pondering this after the Sri Lanka series, no one really stood out as a great option.
Its a bit like asking why Cavendish is such a brilliant sprinter but gets stuffed in the mountains.I enjoy watching the cricket, though I admit to knowing very little about it, but can someone explain to me how England can dominate the tests against India so totally, then get so comprehensively stuffed in the ODIs? This is not at all a rhetorical question - I'm genuinely baffled, and would appreciate the thoughts of folk out there who understand such things.
http://www.espncricinfo.com/magazine/content/story/788447.htmlWhen KP: The Autobiography does not push you into taking sides, it leads you into a contemplation of a flawed character. It is forthright, populist and written in such an agitated, self-justifying manner that even the brashest paragraphs cannot disguise the loneliness of the sporting maverick. There is an "I" in team he asserts, reminding us that cricket is an individual game in a team setting. And so there is. But there is a limit. He forever smacks of an individual refusing to accept the strictures of a team sport.
