You probably have a fair point there, Marty.
However, there have been plenty of good Aussie captains who've been outright batsmen.
For starters, a certain D.G Bradman comes quickly to mind.
In more recent times, I guess you could mention Mark Taylor.
There've been others.
Having said that, I can recall plenty of poor decisions Ricky's made in recent years - some of them quite amazingly obvious. Some of his decisions of when and when not to bring on certain bowlers at critical moments in matches have certainly raised eyebrows.
Whether that's the result of him being 'pure batsman' or not.....
