The three captains, all left handers known for the confidence they exude, are contrasting in their leadership methods. Sanath Jayasuriya is animated, tending to involve teammates in midfield conferences, Sourav Ganguly obviously the man in charge, not averse to shouting or giving vent to anger, and Stephen Fleming the quiet, undemonstrative kind. Each of them is undoubtedly worth his place in the team, regardless of the vagaries of form.
