England Selector Explains Root’s Test Captaincy Over Brook

The Indian Opinion

Captaincy choices should be judged on stated criteria rather than age, reputation or excitement around a newer player. Root’s experience may support the decision, while Brook’s case would depend on leadership evidence, not just batting form. The useful test is simple: England’s next captaincy review should set out the role’s demands and explain how each candidate met them.
