India's Worst Captain till date

[usy]

Yeah that is there usy.
But,i think you know how attached the subcontinent is towards cricket.

To get knocked out of a World Cup,well i don't think any Indian/Pakistani captain survived after that.

1992-Mohd.Azharuddin[exception]
2003-Waqar Younis[sacked]
2007-Inzimam-ul-Haq and Rahul Dravid[sacked & resigned]

I've never seen Mohammad Azharuddin play, heard alot.

Never seen Waqar Captain, he was captaining players who were not only older then him but more expearenced. I can't say anything but i don't hate Waqar, I can undersand it's hard to put Inzi, Rashid Lateef, Saeed Anwar, Shoaib Akhtar, Wasim Akram in one team, where there is no team spirit. We didn?t Play like a team was our biggest failure.

2007 - what can i say, you know, Inzamam was a bad captain, however one of best Batsman. Doesn?t make Dravid a bad captain. You have to look at captaining skills more then how many cups they won, because that is team work more or less.

@cricket_lover : Btw, I am seeing you after long time. You missed some India series i guess.

Yep..haven't been regular on PC for over a year now...busy with research and school.

How are you doing?

Regarding Tendulkar, If he isn't up for it, no point in giving it to him...Anyway, we'll know the name in couple of weeks.

Out of those two.. Tendulkar.. But it's hard to tell.

Regd Azhar,sad,you missed out on something.

Well taling about Pakistan,it was kinda hard for Waqar here as the team already had many former captains in it.,i.e,Wasim,Saeed,Rashid,Mushtaq.

Kumble is also in the running.He sounded pretty enthusisatic about it.Tell you what,I think giving the Test captaincy to Kumble makes sense-adds another feather in his cap.

Best Captain: Kapil Dev - a World Cup win is a World Cup win.

Worst Captain: Mohd. Azharuddin - Don't get me wrong, he was successful. But, a captain who's a match fixer wins the worst captain award in my book. Some might've been less successful, but atleast they tried...

Never saw any Kapil Dev captained match.But from what i have seen on Tv,Kapil looks to be the most stupid captain,we ever had.

Azhar,well its your opinion,but i'd like to add that he did not fix all matches.

What makes you say that? Just dont say things w/o backing them up...give them support.

Yes, he didn't, but even one match is enough. This is the captain of the national team we're talking about. Don't get me wrong, I would've rated Azhar VERY high if we were just going by results, but the thing is, his results could've been better and he purposefully made them worse. Just one time is enough when you're throwing games away. He was the captain of the whole team and was a senior player. He didn't set a good example. He didn't follow the very basics of the ethics involved in captaincy. Anyway, that's just my opinion.

 

[wicked_dude]

kapil dev is a good captain...remeber he is the only captain who won us the world cup..that too by defeating west indies team..considering west indians are very hard to beat..and they already won 2 worldcups...

Just listen to some of the statements he makes on television.
He shows himself in avery poor light.
