5 captains in IPL with the best winning percentage, Rohit Sharma not on the list
Rohit Sharma has five titles in his name in the IPL leading the Mumbai Indians but the current Indian skipper isn't among the top five captains with the best winning percentage. Among the top five, there is only one current captain, who will be active in the upcoming edition of the IPL.
1. MS Dhoni, the joint-most successful captain in IPL history in terms of titles for the Chennai Super Kings, has the best winning percentage among numerous captains to lead in at least 25 matches in the tournament despite leading in 226 games. Dhoni's winning percentage stands at 58.84

2. Sachin Tendulkar didn't win a title as the captain but his results as captain of Mumbai Indians in the IPL were surely better than that for the Indian team. Tendulkar's win percentage of 58.82 was just shy of Dhoni's

3. Steve Smith came close to winning a title with the Rising Pune Supergiant as captain in 2017 but is just behind Tendulkar and Dhoni with a winning percentage of 58.13 in 43 matches in the IPL
