Ian Chappell was right that Warne would have made a brilliant captain of Australia. Unfortunately, Warne's off-the field antics ruined all this. But his cricket brain is brilliant, as he should during the T20 frolic a couple of days ago. He is right about Philip Hughes, Steve Smith and Moises Henriques. The first two, particularly, are Test cricketers for the next decade or so. Smith should take the spinning role from Nathan Hauritz. He can bat splendidly, and right now he is in the mould of a young Richie Benaud. In the future, he is an Australian captain. Shane Warne is the idiot-savant of cricket.
