1 MS Dhoni

Mahendra Singh Dhoni is considered a pioneer of Indian captaincy, he is the one who made us believe you can come out of any situation when you are fully focused on it. Ms Dhoni started his Indian captaincy career in 2007 and his inaugural IPL captaincy in 2008. He led team India to its maiden T20 World Cup victory after that Ms Dhoni was all over to it. Winning the 50 over World Cup to winning the Champions Trophy. What trophy doesn't have? 
 Dhoni started his IPL career with Chennai Super Kings and he is considered the core of the team. He led the team to playoffs beautifully but couldn't go above the line. Ms and Csk achieved their first title in 2010 by beating Mumbai Indians. In 2011 he claimed his second title by beating RCB.
Dhoni became the first captain in IPL history who won back-to-back IPL trophies. It would have been a hatrick but Gautam Gambhir's men were in a determination to break the streak which they did. After that, it seemed like a drought for the Chennai Super Kings as they reached many finals but couldn't go over the line. Ms tactical captaincy and glove work behind the stumps are just the epitome of his saga. After a big gap Ms Dhoni claimed his third title in 2018 beating Hyderabad a special thanks to Shane Watson for his brilliant century he made the game just one-sided. Later on, Ms repeated his magic in 2021 where he claimed his fourth title by beating KKR who once cost them the 2014 final. Dhoni declared the 2023 season as his last tenure as captain of Csk. He won graciously by beating the champions Gujrat Titans where Jadeja's heroics helped Csk and Dhoni to attain their fifth title. Dhoni has always been admired for his calm nature and has a nickname of Mr Cool.
