As Alistair Cook's captaincy is being discussed on another thread, what is the current consensus on the Clarke captaincy? :dunno I'm pretty happy with him atm. He's had quite a bit to deal with this year, and has ended the year on the verge of pulling off an Ashes whitewash. This has been a tough year for Clarke captaincy, but looking ahead, an even tougher one awaits him in 2014.

Clarke has benefited greatly from playing under Shane Warne, I think, Warne is/was a brilliant captain, was a pleasure to witness him first hand at Hampshire.

And eventually we'll have the Clarke Legacy.
