Swann said appointment of Andrew Strauss as the captain was the best thing to happen for English cricket and led the country to the No 1 world ranking.

"There is no doubt that Kev is a good player, a really fine batsman, but he was never the right man to captain England in my opinion," Swann wrote in his autobiography, "The Breaks are off".
