#2 MS Dhoni

MS Dhoni captained 130 matches this decade with 71 victories, notching up an impressive win percentage of 58.3, before stepping down from the job in 2017. Made captain of the team after the disastrous 2007 World Cup in the Carribean, he immediately bought smiles to the saddened faces by winning the inaugural T-20 World Cup. Following the win, he was soon rewarded with the ODI captaincy as well.
Dhoni’s unforgettable helicopter shot, that brought the World Cup back to Indian shores after 28 years, was the highlight of this decade.
As a captain, Dhoni endured a tough 2012 with critics calling for his removal, but the Indian team bounced back in 2013 by winning the Champions Trophy in England. Throughout his captaincy stint, India performed exceptionally in multi-nation tournaments such as the Asia Cup, the World Cup, and the Champions Trophy.
