India’s skipper, Rohit Sharma, has registered an incredible record as captain in men’s T20I cricket. The Hitman has surpassed MS Dhoni as the most successful Indian team captain with 42 wins in 55 games after winning the game against Ireland in the T20 World Cup, whereas MS Dhoni had 41 wins in 72 games with a win percentage of 57%. Take a look at top 5 India captains with most wins in T20Is.
Most Wins as captain in Men’s T20Is
Captains | Matches | Wins | Loss | Win % |
Rohit Sharma | 55 | 42 | 28 | 76.36 |
MS Dhoni | 72 | 41 | 12 | 56.94 |
Virat Kohli | 50 | 30 | 16 | 60.00 |
Hardik Pandya | 16 | 10 | 5 | 62.50 |
Surya Kumar Yadav | 7 | 5 | 2 | 71.42 |
Rohit Sharma surpasses MS Dhoni
As mentioned, after achieving a convincing win over MS Dhoni, Rohit Sharma has surpassed the legend. Since Rohit has been doing a wonderful job with his captaincy skills, there is no question that he may deliver more wins for Team India with his captaincy.
Virat Kohli left at 30
Speaking about the former captain who left the T20I captaincy after the T20 World Cup 2021, he also has the record of clinching 30 wins in 50 games, giving him a 60% winning percentage in T20I cricket as captain. On the other hand, fresh captains like Surya Kumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya, who are surely and steadily looking to improve their record, will do so if they get the chance to captain the Indian T20I team again.
