Pride is usually the leader because "Pride" is the most frequent and dangerous deadly sin. However, even though it is the strongest here as well, Meliodas' history is what makes him the Captain, not his strength.

Also, I'd argue that although Escanor has the top strength, his power is condictionary to the time of the day. While Meliodas has his full power, all the time. In other words, Meliodas could kill Escanor if he wanted to, he'd just have to wait until Escanor is too weak to fight him.

So, it makes sense that "Pride" Escanor isn't leading the sins here, his power is too inconvenient, and he can't even control it. Meanwhile, Meliodas is only suited for the "Wrath" title because of his temper, and to be quite honest, Pride usually doesn't see men killed in combat, Wrath does. So it makes sense why the "Wrath" of the sins is the most feared, even if he isn't the strongest.
