If you look at percentage stats cronje is much higher than his 9place ,and of all of them he was the most innoventive captain of all captains ever point and finish
Ranathunga should be on top 5 . He is the captain cool before MSD . Before 1996 world cup Sri Lanka defeated lot of matches , you can see the deference of the winnings of Sri Lankan team between before 1996 and after 1996. Before 1996 sri lanka never faced finals or semi finals in history .He changed cricket with using no 6 and 7 batsmans sana and kalu as openers. He defended murali because of no ball incident with having big risk on his cricket career . These facts not only depends on winning percentage as a captain . Ranathunga is revolutionary captain in cricket history ❤❤ He is the personality of captaincy ❤❤
Clive Loyd was a captain who resorted to unsportsman-like tactics of the bodyline bowling if he lost a cricket match. Same with Ponting who also was absolutely unsportsman-like and would go to any extent like Loyd to win a cricket match.That's why M S Dhoni is considered the Best as he won three ICC tournaments with absolute sportsman spirit. You can't even imagine doing what Loyd, Ponting did.
Lastly, Pakistan and South Africa has produced some of the best talents in all of cricket, but somehow, they never managed to put that dominance collectively onto the field. Too bad. Don’t understand why their captains are in the top 5
Border would have won a lot more matches if he knew how to use spinners. When Australia played in sydney on a spinners wicket Dirk w WELLEM was brought into the team to manage the spin bowlers.
Border resurrected Australian cricket and didn't have many batsmen to help him when he first started out!! He left Australia in a good state with talented emerging players with his fighting spirit!!Coming up against that Windies side with their great quicks was no easy task and then there was Curtly Ambrose !!
What about Richie Benaud and Sir Frank Worrel? Alan Border rates high because he resurrected Australian cricket with the aid of big hearts like Merv Hjghes and Craig Mc Dermott.I'll forgive him for threatening to send Craig home when he complained of sickness when bowling with a damaged bowel. Don't tell me that's not trying your guts out!!
If you forget the stats as a outsider you would rate Arjuna Ranatunga as the best leader. He moulded a bunch of mediocre cricketers to believe in themselves he spent out of his pocket to help poor cricketers. He led at a time when Murali was targeted by the ACB through their umpires & other tactics. This was proven when the umpires spoke much later to the media. He stood against racism & pointed his finger at Darren hair led his team out & ultimately won the war. If no Arjuna then no Murali or that golden era for Srilankan cricket. He united a nation! For the challenges he faced on & off the field yet coming on top Arjuna is simply the best!
I love Ricky Ponting but he had Glen McGrath, Shane Warne,Brett Lee and Adam Gilchrist and Ian Healy ! Alan Border didn't have much when he started out !!
Dhoni is not 1 by a lang shot. He was good in ODI but poor in tests. In fact Kohli is better in tests than MS. Imo Ganguly is the best Indian captain. Chappelli, Benaud, Headly, Border, Imran, Tunga, those are the best ones.
Your logic does not only defies logic but ignorant. You claim Lloyd is widely regarded as one of the all time best, but you have at #5. Give your head a shake (no several shakes)
Geeze , poor order of Rank, Imran khan had poor win conversion rate, so should not be in top 50, the one name you omitted Is MARK TAYLOR, now he was CRICKET GENIUS and successful, Ponting was great cricketer, but never a top 10 captain, he I merited an established team of super stars
Ricky ponting.., Everytime Best Captain...
If you look at percentage stats cronje is much higher than his 9place ,and of all of them he was the most innoventive captain of all captains ever point and finish
All time no 1 captain ricky ponting
Sadly you have missed the greatest captain of all times.
RICHIE BENAUD who never lost a single series.
Ranathunga should be on top 5 . He is the captain cool before MSD .

Ranathunga is revolutionary captain in cricket history ❤❤
He is the personality of captaincy ❤❤
Viv Richards in the 80s was unbeatable,he should be top 3
No 1 ponting ,clive loyd , imran khan and ms dhoni ,steve wagh , fleming
2003 was led by Ricky ponting 😅
How are Fleming and Smith better than Ranatunga and Cronje? How is Imran Khan better than Clive Loyd?
No one is better then clive Lloyd even Ms dhoni and Ricky ponting are not better then Clive Lloyd.
Clive Loyd was a captain who resorted to unsportsman-like tactics of the bodyline bowling if he lost a cricket match.

Arjuna saved world’s best bowler Murali’s career single handedly.He deserves more recognition😅👍
The captain is only as good as the team.
Its not the number of wins, but rather the percentage of wins.
What about Saurav Ganguly, Mike Brearley, Jeremy Coney, Ian Chappel, MAK Pataudi, Ray Illingworth and so on?
Some of them didn’t win anything. Pataudi, Coney and Illingworth? What exactly did they win?
Coney? Martin Crowe was better. Others are interesting choices.
1983 kapil dev
Yes...plus 1987 India WC semis... in 1986 India 2-0 victory over England at England.. At sharjah 1985... India Rothmans cup champion...
Kapil Dev is a costly miss.... Hansie Cronje.... He was good but to be among the best...cmon
Yes ricky(punter) 😊
Number one captain Sourav Ganguly😊😊
Lastly, Pakistan and South Africa has produced some of the best talents in all of cricket, but somehow, they never managed to put that dominance collectively onto the field. Too bad. Don’t understand why their captains are in the top 5
No 1 Clive Lloyad
Where is md.Azzu..?
ik ki test match ki detail di o
Border would have won a lot more matches if he knew how to use spinners. When Australia played in sydney on a spinners wicket Dirk w
WELLEM was brought into the team to manage the spin bowlers.
Border resurrected Australian cricket and didn't have many batsmen to help him when he first started out!! He left Australia in a good state with talented emerging players with his fighting spirit!!Coming up against that Windies side with their great quicks was no easy task and then there was Curtly Ambrose !!
You have left out Kapil dev one of the successful captain who won 1st World Cup in 1983
I. Think Sunil gavaskar and Kapil dev was great capital
What about pat Cummins , Micheal Clarke???
its 2 b stated later bcoz they r god of cricket team bcoz f not having pressure lik normal players
What about Richie Benaud and Sir Frank Worrel? Alan Border rates high because he resurrected Australian cricket with the aid of big hearts like Merv Hjghes and Craig Mc Dermott.I'll forgive him for threatening to send Craig home when he complained of sickness when bowling with a damaged bowel.

dhoni is best then ricky ponting imran
Msf all way the number 1 capital of India off gangle

MS
No1 ricky pongting you have mistaken.
I love Ricky Ponting but he had Glen McGrath, Shane Warne,Brett Lee and Adam Gilchrist and Ian Healy ! Alan Border didn't have much when he started out !!
The match figures are incorrect Your reporting all the games they played as ones they captained
😊
What about Viv Richards
Great batsmen- the " black Bradman, master blaster !! ".
Dhoni is not 1 by a lang shot. He was good in ODI but poor in tests. In fact Kohli is better in tests than MS. Imo Ganguly is the best Indian captain. Chappelli, Benaud, Headly, Border, Imran, Tunga, those are the best ones.
Clive Lloyd at 5? What a nonsense list
Mohmad azhruddin ke bina ye list pori nahi ho sakti wapas se banaw
Also, Dhoni has never been regarded as a great captain, but then again your choices says a lot about
Wrong No 1 is Ricky Ponting and No 2 is MS Dhoni.
In the pic in 0:02, 90s kids can name all of them.
Ganguly??
No question that Dhoni is no 1. Ponting had great team and was lucky, as was Waugh.
Are you kidding me? No Englishmen? What about the late Great Sir Frank Worrell and Sir Garfield Sobers?
Sir Frank had the best Test series against Richie Benauds team !!
Your logic does not only defies logic but ignorant. You claim Lloyd is widely regarded as one of the all time best, but you have at #5. Give your head a shake (no several shakes)
Imran khan won ine odi tournaments including world cup yes the others smith morgin fleming dont desreve a place
Ricky ponting is no. 1 captain
Geeze , poor order of Rank, Imran khan had poor win conversion rate, so should not be in top 50, the one name you omitted Is MARK TAYLOR, now he was CRICKET GENIUS and successful, Ponting was great cricketer, but never a top 10 captain, he I merited an established team of super stars
MSD greatest captain of all time.
MS Dhoni Nothing In-front-of Our Dada Sourav Ganguly
No Sobers Richie Benaud ? It's not their fault then there are no world Cup matchess.
Frank worrell...
Good u all dead for me byer mere ko kuch nahi milegßs baag
No.1 only ponting
