The Saturday Debate: Atherton, Warne and Smith on captaincy

Join us for a new show this weekend on Sky Sports – The Saturday Debate, hosted by Ian Ward.

Before the start of play on each Saturday of every Test this summer, our experts will gather to discuss a range of different cricket-related subjects.

First on the agenda at Lord's is captaincy – something our starting line-up knows plenty about!

Michael Atherton, Shane Warne and Ian Smith have all experienced the highs (some more than others) and lows of the job.

They’ll share their experiences of the role, explain the difficulties they faced and how they strived to overcome them and talk tactics – assessing captains past and present and analysing how leadership techniques have changed over the years!

Whether you’re a captain yourself, a wannabe skipper or simply want to understand your leader better – this is a discussion you can’t afford to miss.

So make sure you join us at 10am on Sky Sports 2 for the first of our special shows, then catch all of the action from day three of the first Test between England and New Zealand form 11am.
