The KKR has been a busy franchise in the IPL. In the 12 editions thus far, the Kolkata-based franchise has been captained by Gautam Gambhir, local boy Sourav Ganguly, Brendon McCullum, and Dinesh Karthik.

The incumbent skipper Dinesh Karthik’s captaincy record has been lukewarm; he has won 18 matches and lost 19 in total 37 as captain. The current squad of KKR has plenty of youngsters from the Indian domestic set-u who lack experience and are coming of age.

In case of Karthik’s unavailability, the most obvious choice for KKR would be Eoin Morgan given his experience of captaining his national side and it was his under his leadership that England won their maiden ICC World Cup in a thrilling final against New Zealand last year.
