Cricket captaincy itself seems to be in a bit of a rut at the moment. I think you could argue that, at the moment, the best of the lot is Jason Holder of the West Indies. There seems to be a lot of people in the other teams who are captains through default - certainly Joe Root and Tim Paine, and Kohli. Faf seems decent from what I’ve seen.
