Cricinfo recently published an editorial on Pakistan's captaincy conundrum, specifically whether the captain should be Inzamam-ul-Haq or Younis Khan.

Captaincy to Inzamam
~ served Pakistan well thus far and is likely to depart after the World Cup anyways
~ has expressed his refusal to play without captaincy
~ his place in the one-day side is more certain that Younis'

Captaincy to Younis
~ age and energy on his side ... fitness isn't an issue for him as it is for Inzamam
~ has evolved as a batsman in recent times and taken greater responsibility
~ perhaps doesn't have the aura of Inzamam but is a popular captain

So who should be captain? Take your pick.
