The Outsider Posted April 8, 2009 Posted April 8, 2009 Most successful for me isn't even about winning the most matches - that would be the most successful team. The most successful captain for me would be someone who makes the best use of his resources, reads the situations correctly on most occasions, has flexible strategies according to them, knows which XI to play where etc.
SachDan Posted April 8, 2009 Posted April 8, 2009 I'm really fed up with gaurav's hypothetical questions each and every day. We should have a thread titled 'Gaurav and his polls' which he can update daily :cantstop:
flamy Posted April 8, 2009 Posted April 8, 2009 Ah give the kid his space. He's making an honest effort.

The Outsider Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Hmm' date=' how would you judge whether the captain is using all his resources to the best extent if they are not delivering proper results ?[/quote'] Subjectively......captaincy cannot be classified in W/L ratios.
graphic23 Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Subjectively......captaincy cannot be classified in W/L ratios. Perhaps, but the W/L ratio gives an idea of how successful some of the more radical strategies/ideas were in helping the team win matches. The ultimate goal of a captain and his strategies is to win the matches. Obviously, some of the times they're thwarted by even more brilliant batting/bowling on the other end. But generally, I'd feel that the W/L ratio does give an idea into the success of a captain.

Now given similar resources Dhoni has been able to deliver better than Kumble, so he is a better captain.
gaurav92 Posted April 12, 2010 Author Posted April 12, 2010 Bumpppp Who do you think will lift the trophy this year :--D Goddy for me
IKnowU Posted April 12, 2010 Posted April 12, 2010 Gilly too easy. He has so muh more burden o his hands then any other captain.
