Clive Lloyd vs mark Taylor

Taylor no contest.

This isn't remotely close.

Building a team or acting as motivator isn't a cricket skill.

Taylor is probably the best captain of the modern era.

I voted Taylor but why isn't team motivation given credit if it impacts games?

obviously Taylor was a greater tactician by a remarkable margin but Lloyd's impact on Cricket is underrated.

There's a reason why Darren Sammy won two WCs as skipper.

Impact of cricket is different to skill as a captain.

He did a ridiculously amazing and underrated job of bringing players from different countries together to work as a team.
He never let players from the same country share a room, he pushed being and playing as a unit. He suffered at the hands of an aggressive pace attack and was determined that we would return fire with fire, and do it better and for longer.

He molded the team and focused it on aggression (with bat and ball), fitness and fielding.

He took the team from mediocrity to the absolute greatest of all time. He motivated and led with character and determination.

But Taylor was considerably better strategically on the field and that's what I primarily rate captains on.

Of the guys who were hailed as team builders, I easily rate Lloyd above them.
