Vaughan was the one it was really noticeable with, I remember a series around 2000 when it took him to the third test to get an average as he was just never out. Cook and strauss were never the same players after becoming captains imo, two of them improved, oh Gooch, I never included him as he was the exception to the rule and thrived on the captaincy and getting older. It'll be good to see how cook performs post captaincy and they haven't included alec Stewart in there graph either, it can't have done him much good especially when he was keeping wicket
