Battle of the Test captains

[BoyBrumby]

Both captains of great teams, but are either truly great captains? I'll go with Lloyd, because he largely fashioned a winning (and, indeed, all-conquering) team whereas Punter has merely inherited a great (albeit slightly creaking) one.

Lloyd, but Punter will get at least one vote.

Imran Khan was a superb captain whom many regard the greatest in Pakistan cricket history. Pollock had the makings of a good captain before his time was cut short. Both aren't comparable as far as I am concerned.

Ponting:

I believe Lloyd lost two series during captain, and drew one whereas Ponting has only lost one.
