we can select the 5 member team out of the 8 in 8C5 ways = 56 ways.
The captain can be selected from amongst the remaining 3 players in 3 ways.
Therefore, total ways the selection of 5 players and a captain can be made = 56x3 = 168 ways.
(or)
Alternatively, A team of 6 members has to be selected from the 8 players. This can be done in 8C6 or 28 ways.
Now, the captain can be selected from these 6 players in 6 ways.
Therefore, total ways the selection can be made is 28x6 = 168 ways.
