Botham doesn't care about cricket. He was in Spain during the World Cup Final and well pissed off when they interrupted it for a reaction after it was over.Well, what a cracking session that was. Australia spent most of it bowling lollies to kids with no arms, but it was great to see 6 wickets fall. 2 more quick ones after lunch would be nice. Followed by 2 more quick ones after that.
And Ian Botham on to chat during lunch. He'll be choking on his microphone.
Broad's a far more experienced cricketer than Botham when he was captain. Both of the above's track records reflect who their opponents were. Flintoff did OK as skipper apart from the 2006-07 series.The obvious choice would be a shocking look, wouldn’t he? And it might be too much anyway. Didn’t sit well with flintoff or Botham
I think he was referring to Stokes.Broad's a far more experienced cricketer than Botham when he was captain. Both of the above's track records reflect who their opponents were. Flintoff did OK as skipper apart from the 2006-07 series.
Referring to other people's comments, Broad's not an all-rounder anyway.
I'm not generally in favour of bowlers being captains, but maybe Broad would be a decent short-term option.
You know I meant Stokes, yeah?Broad's a far more experienced cricketer than Botham when he was captain. Both of the above's track records reflect who their opponents were. Flintoff did OK as skipper apart from the 2006-07 series.

Bowlers that are old enough to be captains tend to miss a good few games. Though it’s still surprising that bowler captains are quite as rare as they are.Broad's a far more experienced cricketer than Botham when he was captain.
