#2 MS Dhoni
One of the most successful captains in the history of IPL, MS Dhoni has carried his team successfully into the playoffs for the tenth successive time. After finishing the league placed second, he would have his eyes set on the second qualifier where a win would take them directly to the finals. Apart from being a great captain, he is an excellent wicket-keeper too. He has scored 405 runs from 13 matches at an average and strike rate of 135 and 138.69, which are unbelievable numbers. He is also one of the world’s most dangerous batsman in the death overs.
