I don't envisage I will be captain again, but for two England managers, Steve McClaren and Fabio Capello, I was their first choice and I'm proud of that.

You can't justify murder by masking it with a cause.

The board should never have offered England the choice of playing a Test or one-dayer in Karachi. They should have insisted on having a Test in Karachi and not wavered from their stand especially after the bomb blasts in London. There are security concerns everywhere in the world given the prevailing circumstances. England must keep this in mind.

The list of future England managers should not be left until one day after the current manager has disappeared. All of a sudden everyone's in panic, running round all over the place, sometimes not quite sure of what the credentials for the job are. It gets the next bloke off on a bad foot, and that is why the process should be more streamlined and easier than this - certainly it should be quicker.

Craig will be captain. He's the obvious choice.
