http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Clarke-c51120 is an enlightenment on the field: Cricket Australia Chairman– Cricket News Update
Cricket Australia’s chairman, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MJ-Clarke-c1978.
"Overall we're pretty happy with the way things are going, we've seen improvement all round. The captain is doing a fantastic job in my view. He's great on the field, enlightenment really, and I think they're picking pretty good sides,” expressed http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Paul-John-Walter-Allott-c81119,
speaking about general improvement and the captain’s new role in team selection.
Don Argus, an Australian businessman, was commissioned to review Cricket http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013, along with being relegated to the 5th spot on World Test rankings.
The review team, which was being led by Don Argus, included former Australian cricketers like http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Malcolm-Walter-Speed-c74040.
The report, which pitted everything on the coach and selectors, resulted in the ouster of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/RT-Ponting-c2377 after the ICC
Cricket World Cup 2011, was given a say in selection matters to streamline the process.
With the new role, Clarke arguably became one of the most powerful captains in modern-day cricket. He was in the headlines earlier for being involved in veteran Simon Katich’s axing, while he also admitted to being part of the decision to drop former skipper,
Ricky Ponting, from the One Day International squad in February this year.
"I'm 100 per cent part of the selection panel - that's part now of the captain's job, I guess, and we've made this decision as a panel," Clarke had stated regarding Ponting’s ODI axing.
However, despite making positive changes in the management, the board itself has not implemented changes within. Speaking on the matter, Edwards said, "Constitutional change is always difficult and it's even more difficult when there's no crisis and cricket
is in good shape."
Presently, the Aussies are doing fairly well on their tour of the Caribbean, leading the 3-match Test series by a 1-0 margin.
