Smith might be the only option on a temporary basis. No more options which select bowlers or wicket keepers. It has to be a batsman that has the ability to lead by example. Sure they may be a bowler on a temporary basis. This series started really well and the swing in momentum must be credit to the poms. They have done a huge turn around. Rain saves the day. They should have belted us. They are the goods.The recent scheduling for test matches and the desire to rest pace bowlers during a series make the choice of a pace bowler as captain a poor choice.
