Ranking top 10 IPL coaches of all time
A friendly coach who can be strict when needed would be an ideal candidate.
8) Daniel Vettori
The Kiwi was a successful spinner and captain for his country’s national side. Daniel Vettori led the side for many years in his international career in several formats. He also played the IPL for the Royal Challengers Bangalore and was the skipper there too.
All of this means that Vettori is well versed in the leadership role and could make a good coach too. Having been with the Bangalore side for many seasons, Vettori was appointed as the head coach by the franchise in 2014. He had a rocky start as RCB missed out on reaching the playoffs narrowly in 2014.
The next 2 seasons brought immense success both for RCB and Vettori as they qualified for the playoffs in 2015 and reached the final in 2016. However, the following 2 seasons turned out to be dreadful as RCB were the wooden spoon holders in 2017 winning only 3 games out of 14 and did not qualify in 2018 too. Vettori’s coaching stint thus ebbed and flowed over the years ranking him 8th on this list.
