by Wisden Staff 4 minute play

Can you name all of England’s men’s Test captains since 1980 and ace this quiz?

The English Test captaincy has been something of a mixed blessing for those who have taken up. While it is regarded as one of the highest honours you can receive, the scrutiny, controversies, and headaches have been to the detriment of many a batting average.

Since 1980, England have had 13 captains lead in 10 Tests or more, while 1988 saw a quartet of men try their hand at the job.
