Steve Waugh was arguably Australia's greatest captain
Steve Waugh is undoubtedly one of the most successful captains of all time in Test cricket. He had a staggering win percentage of almost 72 (41 wins in 57 Tests). Under his captaincy, Australia won 16 consecutive Test matches, including four consecutive whitewashes.
With the team flourishing under his captaincy, Waugh also did very well with the bat. He often bailed the team out of trouble, especially in his initial games as captain. In the 57 games he led the side, he amassed 3714 runs at a brilliant average of 52.31. He also scored 15 hundreds as captain which puts him at #3 on this list.
