1. KL Rahul
KL Rahul has no experience in captaincy, and it might be the added pressure to him. He has always given his best to the team. The opener has played 28 matches for KXIP and has scored 1252 runs. Currently, he is in the best form and is playing for team India against West Indies in the limited-overs series.
But captaincy can add more pressure on his shoulder. If the team doesn’t choose among these three options, then the franchisee may need to buy a player from the auction.
