The personalities involved in 2010 list failed to make it to the 2011 list.
M.S Dhoni ranked 52nd in the list, under whose leadership India won its first Cricket World Cup in 28 years. Time noted, "Dhoni is now universally acknowledged as India's best captain ever. He's also its most likable, exuding both cool confidence and down-to-earth humility. Dhoni doesn't just lead a cricket team; he's also India's captain of hope. And he didn't just win India the World Cup; he also taught India how to win." His charisma as one of the most successful captain for India has made his way to the list.
