If Cook is likely replacement, then why is he not in this team ?
 

Broad and Morgan may also come into contention for the skippers armband. Or whatever the cricket version is called.

can't see either of them being considered, Morgan doesn't look or act like a captain and Broad isn't mature enough for it. Cook, Bell or for an outside bet Swann will get it although maturity may be an issue with Swann but does have a good cricket brain.

I know what you mean but I was just trying to think of players that are probably automatic picks for the ODI team and there aren't many. Completely forgot about Swann and although he seems to have improved a lot recently I still can't help thinking Bell will become crap again.

Perhaps Broad could be the captain after the next one assuming he matures over the next few years.

Why isn't he anyway?
Why is the captaincy even been discussed at this stage?

Why do WC campaigns always end up in disarray for England?
 
Mainly, I just hope they manage to salvage all this on Thursday.

The Cook omission isn't all that logical. But, supposing that he continues not to be picked for the ODIs, then it only leaves Bell, really.
