The ICC T20 World Cup has not been what teams expected. India, the defending champions, are standing a step away from the verge of elimination or qualification ahead of the semis. New Zealand are depending on Pakistan to qualify for the semis, and Zimbabwe played their first-ever Super-8, defeating the mighty Aussies in the group stage.
Former South African skipper Faf du Plessis has been an eminent part of the expert panel for the ICC T20 World Cup. He has been making several picks that have taken fans by surprise, and he was handed the job to pick out the best captain of all the skippers in the T20 World Cup 2026.
South Africa seemed impressed by Raza's captaincy stunts, and why not, since he led Zimbabwe to their first-ever Super-8 round. He picked Sikandar Raza over Rashid Khan, Shai Hope and Dasun Shanaka.
Not Suryakumar Yadav or Mitchell Santner, Faf du Plessis picks this player as the best Captain
Markram has truly been fantastic in this edition, and that seemed evident through Faf du Plessis' dilemma, when he was asked to pick between Markram and the spectacular skipper for the Blackcaps, Mitchell Santner. Santner is known as one of the smartest captains in regulating the flow of an innings and the rotation of his bowlers.
