Can't help but think he'd be even more well reagarded had he never captained his team tho. Tactically and temperamentally he's sometimes come up short.

Reallly agree with both statements, especially the first. With regard to the second I wish Warne had been made skip instead back in the day, and kept playing til now when he can pass on this love boy Clarkey (love Clarkey aswell) We can all dream Hey!!

instead of a 0 and 9, i wish ponting had scored at least a 15 and 0 to mark his 150th test.

This.

If Warne had have been made captain then I think he would still probably be playing today. An extra 4-5 years of Warne magic would have really been nice.

I don't think even he would've survived the six tests in India, although 2009 Ashes results would've been affected.

Well at least he'll always remember his 150th test, one way or the other

Surely he'll score some runs in his 151st. Would be un-Ponting like not to with his team up against it.
