He seems very prickly, but being interviewed on live TV about how, as captain, you threw away the Ashes at home.....it doesn't get much worse than that. Maybe that's what he'll be remembered for. If he hadn't dropped Nathan Lyon in the 1st match he'd probably be the flawless hero with everyone calling for him to be knighted. He chose that ball as the one which he would have liked to play again. 11min50 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aR_hfc1iXKE

When you think about the sheer volume of quick decisions he's had to take on the field, plus his own batting and bowling and fielding...what a job.
