Ganguly, not Dhoni, is the greatest Indian captain

Article by Haresh Pandya:

With the exception of the recent tours of England and Australia, where India suffered eight defeats in a row, hardly does a Test series pass without addition of a new feather in Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s cap as a captain.With two successive wins against New Zealand, he is now inching closer to Sourav Ganguly as India’s most successful Test captain.

India has tasted a record 21 triumphs (11 abroad) under Ganguly in 49 Tests. At the end of the series against the Kiwis, Dhoni’s score is 19 victories (5 overseas) in 39 Tests. Considering India’s tight schedule with more Test series to follow, it may not be very long before Dhoni finally leaves Ganguly behind.

Dhoni is at the pinnacle of his prowess and seems to be enjoying every moment of his cricket. He is equally relishing leading India. Team India has benefited immensely from Dhoni’s batting, wicket-keeping and captaincy.He is a prodigiously talented cricketer with brilliant mental gifts. There just does not appear to be a better man to captain India. Virat Kohli is there, of course, but as long as Dhoni is around, he has to take the backseat.

Fantastic Five Records By MSD :

–> Almost everyone would concur that Dhoni is an extremely lucky
man. But then, fortune favors only the brave. Amidst all the records he
has made and all the memorable innings he has played, the following five
are his top accomplishments:

* T20 World Cup 2007-08: In a
heated India-Pakistan match, Dhoni steered his team to a nail-biting
victory- thus becoming the first ever T20 champions in cricketing
history.

* ODI World Cup 2011-12: India beat Sri Lanka by an
astounding margin of six wickets, thus becoming only the third country
to win the ODI World Cup more than once.

* No. 1 ranking in
test cricket: Captain Dhoni also anchored the Men in Blue to the number
one ranking in Test cricket, a position that had eluded India for a long
time.

* IPL wins in 2010 and 2011: Chennai Super Kings holds
the stupendous record of winning the indian Premier League championship
two out of four times, both under Dhoni’s captaincy. CSK also holds the
distinction of qualifying for the top four in all the four IPL
tournaments held till date.

* Champions League 2010: Chennai
Super Kings, under the aegis of Dhoni won the Champions League Twenty20
Championship which is the second most elite competition after the World
Cup
As well my dear frd says Dhomi won 19 in 39. I must say more in percentage by Ganguly second Dhoni played 18 match and 5 win its okay but if we ignore last continuous 8 defeat Dhini in abroad

10 match 5 won 4 draw and only 1 defeat. Only this bad patch cant make Dhoni bitter. Before 8 defeat Dhoni took India on 1st rank in Test. as well five great achievements to say Dhoni is great captain what about Ganguly?
