The Bangalore-based franchise has been led by Rahul Dravid, Daniel Vettori, Anil Kumble, Shane Watson, Kevin Pietersen, and the current skipper Virat Kohli. Though Kohli’s international captaincy record is as impressive as any, his numbers as a leader in the IPL look pale.

The Delhi-dasher has skippered his team in 110 matches and has won 50 whereas lost 56 out of them. The “Play bold army” has shown belief in their captain and have backed him despite not getting the success they desire. In Kohli’s absence, the potential contenders for the skipper’s role of RCB could be AB de Villiers and Aaron Finch.

However, given Finchy’s experience of leading the Australian team in colors as well as his Big Bash League franchise Melbourne Renegades, he should be the most suitable option. Finch captained the now-defunct Pune Warriors India ages ago in the 2013 edition in 10 matches and he went onto lose 8 of them.
