Indian Cricket Team have been very lucky to witness two of the greatest leaders of the modern generation – Sourav Ganguly and MS Dhoni lead their country to greater heights. With this, there has been a long-standing debate on who is the best amongst the two. Recently, former India cricketer Mohammad Kaif revealed his pick for India’s best captain.
While Ganguly instilled the belief among the cricketers that they can also go abroad and win, MS Dhoni made that a reality. Under his leadership, the Men in Blues won three ICC titles – ICC World T20 in 2007, ICC World Cup in 2011 and the ICC Champions Trophy in 2013. He is the only skipper in the history of the game to achieve this feat.
