Kumar Sangakkara – success 34.04%
Former Sri Lankan wicket-keeper batsman Kumar Sangakkara was undoubtedly one of the greatest wicket-keeper batsmen in international cricket history. As a Sri Lankan captain, he was also very successful. But his leadership didn’t work well in the IPL.
During his IPL career, Sangakkara served for the Kings XI Punjab (KXIP), Deccan Chargers (DC) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) as he played 71 IPL matches. He led all these IPL teams and under his leadership, his team won 15 matches out of 47 games with the success rate of 34.04%. As a captain in the IPL, Sangakkara suffered 30 defeats and the other two had the tie results.
