Hence, whoever won us the most matches after a reasonable amount(maybe 10+ matches) of captaincy, is the best.

I
absolutely disagree. The best captain is who gets the best results given the resources available. For example, MAK Pataudi was one of the (if not the) best captains of Indian cricket. He did not have the team to win consistently, but he won way more than he was supposed to (given the strength of his team).
