Ricky resigns as captain, but doesn't retire.
so far Vettori, Smith and Ponting have given up the captaincy. IMO Strauss will step down too, Sammy doesn't even deserve his place so he will be gone and if India don't win the world cup Dhoni might be going as well.

hadnt heard about smith.. have india got a deent WK replacement or do you just mean leaving the captaincy?
Just the captaincy.
Its interesting to compare this to the County Championship where the same thing was being said last season with a few giving up the captaincy of their counties.so far Vettori, Smith and Ponting have given up the captaincy.

only news i can find about smith resigning is for the T20
any links for him resigning from odis or tests???
Looks like it. Sammy should never have got the WI captaincy and I suspect they will give it back to Sarwan now after he originally had it a couple of years ago before getting injured and losing it to Gayle. Taylor looks a shoe in for NZ job but the South Africa vacancy is the most open I think, they have used Botha in Smith's absence but I don't really think he's worth a place in the team. Kallis is too old so I'd reckon it will go to De Villiers as there's no other obvious candidate.

Maybe there is just too much pressure on them now.
