Most of the times, i show you some stats to help you. This time , i thought that stats will mis-lead you.
However i would like to tell you some important things -
* Mark Taylor was once struggling with the bat & to keep his position in the team alive even though he was the captain.
Against a good bowling team (i think West Indies it was) & on a good,bouncy wicket for bowlers he won the toss & decided to bat first to make sure that his team bowls 4th in that test match.
Now, the thing to notice is that he himself was struggling to keep his place in the team as a batsman(& he had to face good fast bowlers on a bouncy wicket as an opener) but he made a decision that was in favour of his team & not selfish.
So, that's one very important thing about his captaincy.
* About Arjuna Ranatunga - It is known to all how he supported his bowler Murali on tough ocassions. He made the best use of his young side.
*About Steve Waugh, i don't have much to say. He was just the best
