Key Insights on Leading Captaincy Records in Men’s T20 International Wins

Global and Indian T20I Captaincy Milestones

In 2024, Rohit Sharma became the first captain to win 50 matches in T20I cricket.

That, obviously, makes him the most successful Indian skipper in the shortest format.

Rohit’s win percentage of 80.64 is the highest among skippers who’ve captained in at least 30 T20Is. (You can check Rohit’s complete captaincy stats here.)

20 of MS Dhoni’s 42 victories came in the T20 World Cup, the most by a captain in the ICC tournament.


T20 World Cup and Tournament Captaincy Achievements

Daren Sammy is the only skipper to win the T20 World Cup twice, leading the West Indies to title triumphs in the 2012 and 2016 editions.


Record-Breaking Win Streaks and Yearly Performances

Spain’s Christian Munoz-Mills has won the most consecutive matches as captain in T20Is, with his streak extending to 15 victories.

Aqib Iqbal led Austria to 29 victories in 2025, the most by a captain in a calendar year in T20Is.

Austria’s 29 wins are also the joint-most by a T20I team in a calendar year.

Rohit (21 in 2022) and Babar Azam (20 in 2021) are the only two captains from full member T20I teams to win 20 or more matches in a year.


Unwanted Captaincy Records

Rwanda’s Clinton Rubagumya is the only captain to lose 60 or more matches in T20I cricket.
