Not as a captain.. But as a batsman he "made it" after his English summer last year IMO...

Adam Huckle captained Zimbabwe in the last decade, and he definitely didn't make it. Neither did Chris Cowdrey, nor Luke Germon...

As a batsman there has been precious little past blugeoning inept English bowling in those two games, and as a captain all he seems to be good at is abusing his team-mates. I look forward to this winter's tour to see if he proves me wrong.

And never disparage no-neckers, Gladstone Small was a legend!

If Graeme Smith hasn't made it yet neither has Flintoff.

For mine, I never thought Hayden would do that well...but hey, hes killed my theory and it makes me happy

I reckon that one of the two will have an excellent winter series, and the other will crash and burn.

That could well decide the destination of the trophy.
