Rohit Sharma or MS Dhoni? Sehwag and Harbhajan disagree on best IPL captain pick

Former India opener Virender Sehwag has picked Mumbai Indians' Rohit Sharma over Chennai Super Kings' MS Dhoni as best IPL captain because of number of trophies franchise has won in last 15 years.

Mumbai Indians are most successful IPL side with five trophies, followed by Chennai Super Kings, who have won four titles.

" numbers tell you everything. See, MS Dhoni had experience of captaining Indian team and n he became captain of Chennai Super Kings. Rohit Sharma's first captaincy stint was with Mumbai Indians, and from re, his journey to success began.

"So, that's why he deserves more credit. Much like Sourav Ganguly, who became captain of Indian team and tried new and different things. Under his leadership, India became number one one-day team. That's why my pick is Rohit Sharma," Sehwag told Star Sports during a programme to celebrate 15 years of IPL.

However, former India spinner Harbhajan Singh voted Dhoni as best skipper of IPL.

"I will give my vote to Dhoni, because from very first year, he has played for a single franchise. He has played a huge role in making franchise successful. way he has captained his team has been extraordinary. Or captains also have done well and have won tournament. But I think, overall, my vote will definitely go to Dhoni," said Harbhajan.

"If you look at trophies -- Rohit Sharma has won five trophies, while MS Dhoni has won four. I have played for both teams. My heart still keeps beating for Mumbai Indians since I have played re for 10 years but those two years at CSK taught me a lot."
