This will also be a season where there will be some leadership changes. There will be some players like Axar Patel who has led the Delhi Capitals side in only one match and it will be interesting to see what he can accomplish as a full-time skipper. On the other hand, his former DC teammate and skipper Rishabh Pant will be leading the Lucknow SuperGiants (LSG) in the upcoming season. 

The biggest leadership change took place in the Kolkata Knight Riders squad where the defending champions released their former skipper Shreyas Iyer and announced Ajinkya Rahane as their new skipper who is now the only player to lead three IPL franchises. Meanwhile, Shreyas will be leading Punjab Kings (PBKS). This is what will get all the people excited to see what these changes can lead to.
