Former English captain Michael Vaughan feels that Harry Brook would be a better long -term choice to lead the test team as soon as the current captain Ben Stokes stepped down from his role. In the fifth test on the oval oval, Vice -President Ollie Pope England leads in the absence of Stokes, but Vaughan believes that Brook’s presence in the field makes him more natural for the captain.
“Harry Brook looks like a leader for me. He looks like a born leader. If Ben Stokes is injured in the future, the Pope cannot remain as vice -chairman and Harry Brook gets a leading role?” Vaughan said at the Special Podcast test match.
Brook scored an exciting and probably wrestling-playing knocking 111 in 98 balls in the fourth shifts, which ruled England of hope of winning, winning a series because the hosts require only 35 runs with four goals left until the last day.
26 -year -old man was recently appointed Engliev Captain White Ball After Jos Buttler resigned from his role after the England campaign without the winning Masters Trophy 2025.
Vaughan, who appreciates an excellent record as a captain of the test by winning 26 out of 51 tests during his time, supporting his challenge by explaining the difference between the captain and leader.
“I look at someone like.” Ollie Pope that looks fantastic more captain. He is a great person who has next to the captain to come up with ideas. Vice-Capitans are sometimes not brilliant captains. ”
The veteran dough even remembered its own games to explain the gentle difference between the two leaders who are at the team at the helm.
“Marcus Trescothick was a spectacular vice -chairman for me, but you wouldn’t want to give him a captain.”
Vaughan believes that more captain is someone who supports the captain’s ideas, but that does not necessarily mean that they are suitable for leadership, emphasizing that “sometimes more-capitans are not brilliant captains”.
While the Pope after the fifth captain of the test party, Vaughan showed that his concern is only what is best for the team.
“I just want the best captain who is the best leader who leads on the side of England. I don’t think a good vice -chairman will necessarily be a good captain,” he added.
England will tour Australia on All-Important Ashes Series since November, at the end of this year, as Ben Stokes will be unlikely to be available for all five tests, the still edigmatic English test party could play very well against its archive rivals in Australia.
