5 Captains with highest winning percentage across all formats in 2024

The year 2024 witnessed a lot of memorable events in the game of cricket. In the international circuit, the T20 World Cup was the biggest event which saw some exhilarating action. This was also the biggest of its kind as 20 teams participated in the main round for the first time. Afghanistan turned heads with some excellent performances during the marquee event and made it to the semi-finals of a World Cup for the first time. Test cricket also continued with the World Test Championship (WTC 2025) reaching the business end. Under Temba Bavuma's astute leadership, South Africa made it to the finals for the first time. Meanwhile, ODI cricket took a backseat as there were not many 50-over matches played in the year. During the year, there were a lot of captains who made a mark with their sharp cricketing brains and the ability to keep their composure in crunch situations. CricTracker has listed five captains of full-member nations with the best winning percentage across all formats in 2024 (minimum of 15 matches). Let's have a look at five Captains with best winning percentage across all formats in 2024: 5. Charith Asalanka Charith Asalanka.

Under his leadership, the Lankans won 10 matches and lost eight. Two games were tied, while one ended without a result. Asalanka finished with a win percentage of 47.62. 4.

He guided the Men in Blue to the T20 World Cup title in June. The Mumbai batter led from the front as he finished as the second-highest run-getter in the global event. While the first half of the year was full of ups for the Nagpur-born, the second half saw him drawing flak for India's Test series defeats against New Zealand and Australia. Rohit led India in 28 matches in 2024. The Asian giants won 17 matches and lost eight. Two games were tied, while one ended without a result. Rohit had a win percentage of 60.71. 1.

The seam-bowling all-rounder had a fine year as the Australian captain, even though the Men in Yellow couldn't reach the knockout stage in the T20 World Cup. In 20 matches under Marsh's leadership, the Aussies won 15 and lost just five. He finished the year with a win percentage of 75. Also Check: 3 most searched Indian cricketers on Google in 2024
