Aussie captains and teams: Hughes, Border, Waugh, Ponting

[fineleg]

Was interested in knowing some history of how the Aussie teams did under the various captains: Hughes, Border, Waugh and Ponting. We know that Waugh's team was dominating the world, and the legacy continued through Ponting to where it is today. How was it in pre-Hughes, Hughes era and Alan Border era? Did the Aussie dominance of world cricket start after Hughes era and during Border era?

Hughes team and early Border teams match what Ponting brought in this series. Among the worst in 25 years.
