How much say does the captain really have in the batting lineup though?Normally very good but was questionable yesterday. Smith should have got at absolute most two overs bowling the way he was going so I found it odd to keep him on for a third. It was also asking for trouble sending Maxwell in at that situation when Wade was clearly more suited to it. Overall, I think he's a very good captain who seems to run a calm and steady team, more so than Clarke seems to. Clarke from a tactical point of view is more proactive, although Bailey is very good at controlling the death overs and limiting damage.
