Question

Would Graeme Smith be an even better batsman if not captain of S.A.?

Answer 1

He's OK, on top & lookin good

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

yes there is a possibility~

Answer 4

proberly, he didnt handle the job too well when he was first made capt.

Answer 5

He is a good captain and a good batsmen.

Answer 6

It's hard to say. There was some talk when he took over the captaincy as to whether he could shoulder the responsibility without his batting suffering & he did look a bit shaky there for a bit, but he seems to have settled down & has the no.1 spot in the world, so I guess he will do OK.

Answer 7

probably not, he is no.1 so what does he have to aspire to?

Answer 8

He's been captain for a long time now and since he was very young.  I'd have though he'd struggle if he stepped down.

Answer 9

He has had very good knocks as captain and can perform really well!! He just had a bad day!!

Answer 10

No, I think he plays better under pressure, and being captain adds pressure.

Answer 11

Hi,

          Smith is one of the best batsman, captain in the cricket. most couregous captain tha ricky ponting,(chasing 434 runs against Australia would tell the rest). He is the one who is trying hard to remove the tag CHOKKERS from SouthAfrica Team. All the best for him....

bala....

Answer 12

Some players perform better when they are the captain and some dont. Graeme smith is a very strong character both pysically and mentally, and i personally think, that captaincy has made him a better batsmen, as he likes to lead from the front.
