I agree, I feel Collingwood is a fighter. I dont see that coming from Strauss. I think Collingwood should definatly be the captain in ODI's, since strauss is not that good of a ODI player to begin with.

I dont think the Flamehaired adonis is ready for the step up to the test plate, but is the man for the job in the shorter formats.
Quite ironic for someone christened Brigadier Block.

Agreed,especially with an extra argument of giving Lumb and Kieswetter an opportunity to open in the 50 over game now too after their success in the 20/20.

I'd be surprised if Colly wants the ODI job, I'm not sure he wanted the T20 job either really. Last time he was ODI captain (and T20s) it was pretty much a total disaster.
King Pietersen
International Captain
That's why Pietersen should be given the captaincy. He's quite clearly the best man for the job, and should certainly be next in line for the Test captaincy; it's just a shame they're holding the Moores issue against him. The ECB agreed with Pietersen's views, as they binned Moores, as he advised, yet still sacked him. Sure Strauss has done a good job as Test captain, and Colly's won a Tournament as T20i captain, but I still think Pietersen would be a better long-term option across all forms. Even with Collingwood's success in T20's I still think KP should take over.
