#1 Ricky Ponting (Australia)

<p>

There is a reason he is considered the most successful Australian captain ever. Ricky Ponting always led his team from the front with his stupendous knocks across all formats. 'Punter' is famous for leading an unassailable Australian side that holds the longest winning streak in world cup cricket. He led Australia to two world cup victories in 2003 and 2007 respectively.

In 220 innings as captain, he managed to score 8497 runs with 51 half-centuries and 22 centuries. The classical batsman is at the top of the list for his marvellous contribution as a skipper. His aggressive captaincy and fielding helped Australia in many crucial encounters. Ponting has scored the highest number of runs as an ODI captain.
