International Captain
Two legends of the game
How is Nasser Hussain a legend of the game? He was about Craig McMillan level (perhaps slightly better as a batsman but worse as a cricketer). Tbf Hussain overachieved while McMillan massively underachieved.Two legends of the game
I rate Nasser as our best captain since Brearley but yeah he was a decent test batter at best that got everything out of himself.How is Nasser Hussain a legend of the game?

What about Stokes? He’s saving test cricket as captain IMOI rate Nasser as our best captain since Brearley but yeah he was a decent test batter at best that got everything out of himself.
He did a superb job in improving fitness and professionalism but (perhaps sadly) his captaincy will be best remembered for the declarations/forfeited innings v SA (Cronje) and putting Australia in at the Gabba.I rate Nasser as our best captain since Brearley but yeah he was a decent test batter at best that got everything out of himself.
Hopefully Stokes' captaincy is forever remember for losing after declaring on Day 1.He did a superb job in improving fitness and professionalism but (perhaps sadly) his captaincy will be best remembered for the declarations/forfeited innings v SA (Cronje) and putting Australia in at the Gabba.
It’s not about the results with his team tho. Their main goal is entertaining and winning the moral battleHopefully Stokes' captaincy is forever remember for losing after declaring on Day 1.
