I'd like to give more credit to the team and to Woolmer; after all, this was the team that Younis had refused to lead in a hissy fit, and allegedly, was not happy with, if the reports about his drama tantrums are to be believed. Yet the team members put all that behind them and gave their 100% for the cause - a testament to their character, fostered over the past 2 to 3 years by the Inzi + Bobby combination; team spirit takes weeks and months to develop, so I am not sure what Younis is alleged to have contributed in 36 hours of being captain!
