Note: Captaincy should not be rated based on number of trophies. MS Dhoni got to captain strongest (established International overseas as well as Indian players) team of IPL every season. The reason I voted Gambhir over Warne though in the polls is his longevity as a captain and still not losing quality. nah .. covering your base kya now you relaized that you cant change the vote Rasgulla 1

Special mention to Shane Warne who took an RPS Pune type team (on paper) to victory. gambhit bhai , what happened to you Sidhoni and Rasgulla 2
Pollack Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 2 minutes ago, velu said: nah .. covering your base kya now you relaized that you cant change the vote Not really. Like I said I really rate Warne's captaincy but gambhir is very very close and to add to that he has longevity. The rating out of 10 did not include longevity and some other parameters. Inclusive of those makes Gambhir clear winner but that doesn't mean Warne would not have been captain for long if he was a bit younger like Gambhir.

sandeep Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 6 hours ago, beetle said: I don't like Gambhir but I vote for him because of his longetivity as a captain without getting burnt out. MI and CSK both have good records but they both seem to have unexplained advantages at times owing to money and power which Kkr has not had. Warner is a good captain too. Warne's success was beginers luck. Wondér if he would have been that sucessful had he stayed longer. +1 Warne is a bit overrated - deserves credit but not as much as he gets.
asterix Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 It has to be Rohit Sharma... won IPL & CL... been there & done that... also his team has never been banned, disgraced & dismantled under his able leadership... So it's Rohit the clear winner... New guy and Laaloo 2
Cricketics Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 I picked Gambhir but could have picked Dhoni also. Not much difference. Dhoni too played huge role in bringing the best out of unknown players and the then youngsters like Raina, Ashwin, Jadeja etc who went on to become regular fixture in IPl and Indian cricket. Shane Warne was brilliant also for his time he spent as captain in IPL. Rohit Sharma too deserves special mention for being a top batsman as captain and leading from the front few years back as he was scoring and taking Mumbai to victories by batting extremely well for his side. Not sure his captaincy was tested a lot though with the squad and management they had, but he as an IPl player was brilliant in those middle years. Sidhoni, Shunya and asterix 3

Mariyam Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Captain MSD Reason: helicopter shot and generally very astute captaincy. Sidhoni 1
Unstable Joe Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Gambhir wins it IMO. Warne and MSD are close seconds. Now, I don't really like GG, but his tactical precision and field placements have been simply outstanding. His bowling choices are accurate most of the time (such as continuing with pace for all 10 overs against RCB this season) and doesn't make useless part-time bowlers bowl the last over (like Rohit Sharma often does with Pollard). Warne was brilliant as RR captain taking a very mediocre team all the way and MSD (as much as I hate him) has been a pretty good and successful captain (even though he had a great team).

kira Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 If we had gambhir as captain instead of dhoni then we would've had at least 2 more t20 wc in our bag, if not more

Gambhir has always been a yuvi fan so dnt expect he wud have not had yuvi in 2014 wc It is hilarious and pathetic that people Sh!t on yuvi for that one innings, Yuvi single handedly won a t20 wc for us in 2007, and still people talk crap about yuvi for that 1 innings he played after returning from cancer yet the same fans lick dhoni's boots, the same dhoni who has been downright pathetic in t20 internationals as a player, I am not even talking about captaincy, he doesn't deserve a place in the t20 international team as a player, I can accept people criticizing yuvi but if a person Sh!ts on yuvi but is a dhoni fan at the same time then he has no freaking respect in my eyes Shunya 1
