hi friends.in this IPL,the captaincy is under a lot of scrutiny because of knights and challengers and ofcourse we will be sitting infront of ur TV screen commenting about their bad captaincy.but any of you guys got what it takes to captain a cricket team,be it a national team or zonal team or even an IPL team?
i comment about the captaincy because i have 100 % win record as a captain of my team and if given the chance,wont mind taking my team to victory at any cost without hurting the spirit of the game.

I reckon I have what it takes to captain a top level team. My record is not queit 100% but my team was not 100% either. Having half a team of Pacific Islanders and Chinese does not help, especially when playing teams with good players. Anyway I thought I did a decent job as captain and I am ready to step up a level if needed.

I bowl some part time rubbish that spin any way they want, but they are effective sometimes. If they fool me they can also fool the batsmen.
I once bowled an over when the other team needed 9 to win with 2 overs to go. Unfortunately for me they got it in 4 balls. I bowled a wide of which they scored 3, and then ran another 5. So that was not a good experience. This was not a full pressure situation though, they had 12 balls and 2 very good batsmen. I usually preferred to give last overs etc to the better bowlers.

take me on lol , just tell the time and place.
U know sometimes a string of harsh words can do wonders if given at the right time... some people just ask for it , that time u can ask them to warm the bench no matter how good the player is , puts some sense and pays off in the long run...
