  Graham Gooch is one of the most influential England cricket captains since Mike Brearley. He has retrieved the reputation of the ailing England team while retaining his own form. With the emphasis on determination and planning, Gooch has earned the respect of his fellow players and the support of the cricket watching public. In this explanation of his approach to the tricky art of captaincy he covers the job description, from team selection to personal motivation, from field placings to dealing with the media. Gooch also considers the respective captaincy skills of many Test captains.
