Lala rated Mahi better than Ponting in terms of captaincy

New Delhi: Former Pakistan cricket team captain Shahid Afridi has rated Mahendra Singh Dhoni better than Australia’s Ricky Ponting in terms of captaincy skills during a Q&A session with fans on Twitter.

One of the fans asked: “Better captain Dhoni or Ponting? Lala choice?”. Afridi replied by saying: “I rate Dhoni a bit higher than Ponting as he developed a new team full of youngsters.”

The former Indian captain, Dhoni, is widely regarded as one of the greatest captains in the history of cricket. At the same time, erstwhile Australian skipper Ricky Ponting is also placed in one of the highest categories in the list.

Till date, Dhoni remains the only captain who has won all the ICC accolades that an international skipper can desire. He started his journey with the ICC World T20 in 2007, and followed it up with the ICC Test Mace in 2009 and the ICC World Cup in 2011 before winning the ICC Champions Trophy in 2013.

As for Ponting, he led Australia to two back-to-back World Cup titles in 2003 and 2007 and helped them become a force in the longest format as well.
