Totally agree about Stokes and the captaincy, but it's faute de mieux. Apart from Root, he's the only player guaranteed (if fit) a place in the team.
Josh Bohannon looks a good prospect......please, someone emerge!
There’s too much mystique attached to the captaincy. Richie Benaud-of blessed memory-always felt that an eleven would yield up a captain. Neither Rhodes nor Bohannan would be in the best XI even allowing for present batting weaknesses. Have a look at some of the captains in IPL with little or no previous experience. Elgar and Cummins for SA and Australia have made it work.
