2. Kumar Sangakkara: 34.04%

IPL 2026 | `We are disappointed to lose a player of Sam`s calibre...`: Kumar Sangakkara

One of the finest batters and leaders in international cricket, Kumar Sangakkara ranks second on this list. Despite his tactical intelligence and vast experience, particularly in the coaching department of the Rajasthan Royals, sustained success as an IPL captain proved elusive.
