If Rahul had really said that to the Board, then the BCCI should have named a Junior as the captain (Yuvaraj, Dinesh Karthick, or someone whose place is certain) and left the seniors to maintain their places based on their performances. They have done it before when they named Mohd. Azharuddin as the skipper in the late eighties. Azhar had three ex captains in his team, i.e., Kapil, Vengsarkar and Srikanth. In a country like India where cricket is more than a game, the leader of the team has to be mentally strong, apart from possesing the other necessary qualities.
