HaHa. Do you like how I did it underlined in blue, so people would think it was a link?
I don't think the selectors are leaning towards Gilchrist as captain. He will be mentally tired after being behind the stumps for close to 200 overs. The selectors would have announced him captain straight away if they were going to name him.
I wouldn't be surprised if they call on Steve Waugh and if he accepts, it is an important tour, so an established captain and player of Waugh's calabre can not be thrown out so lightly. Also, Waugh has stated publicly that India is his 'final frontier' and what fitting way for him to finish his career again with revenge against India in India.
If they don't go for Waugh, I think Lehmann & Hayden and maybe Langer (doubtful) will be the leading candidates.
