Yes, it seems a risky choice but time will tell. It's another instance where it'd be interesting to see who the other applicants were - if there were any! With this preseason tour imminent they'll surely have to announce a captain very soon.

Presumably tomorrow -they can hardly announce a touring squad without nominating a captain.

Before I realised that I wondered if he could have been an option to replace Bancroft if he were to be called into the Ashes squad, think he meets the eligibility criteria for FC cricket over here but it does not appear to be his forte.
