As a captain yourself, CF, what is the secret to being a good captain?

Who said CF was a good captain?

That's a good point. Take 2;

CF, do you rate yourself as a captain, and if so, what is the secret to being rated as a captain?

well in my first season in charge we missed out on promtion by only a few points.....i would say being a good thinker defo helps..you need to be one step ahead of the game, knowing when to mix up your bowling combinations, thinking on your feet, and be prepared to take risks, to get yourself and your team ahead in the game.....

As a captain, what is your assessment of how Michael Clarke performed in his role compared with the job done by MSD?

Michael clarke was so much better..

he was energetic even at slip..he ran to his position after every over, offered constant encoruaement to his bowlers, knew when to mix things up...

and the thing i like about clarke is, even if someone has 4 wickets and the tail is in, if the bowler isnt getting it right then he will haul them off, instead of letting them get the 5 for and leaking runs.

Also the side looks like they want to play for clarke, while with dhoni it the players dont look motivated and to be honest they look like they have lost all confidence in his test captaincy......IMO clarke is a much better skipper.

I wonder from where will Australia take 20 Indian wickets in a match let alone two matches.

As I said I was supporting Australia.So I am happy to be proven wrong.
