IPL 2025: There is still a lot of time left for IPL 2025 to start, but preparations for it have already started. This time the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is going to organize a mega auction and in such a situation many changes can be seen in the teams.

In this auction, many teams would like to include such a player who can also captain the team. Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) is also included in this series and they are looking for a captain in IPL 2025.

RCB gets trophy winning captain

Actually, before IPL 2025, the question in everyone's mind is which player is going to be seen as the captain of RCB. Faf du Plessis was seen captaining the team in IPL 2024.

In such a situation, now he can be seen leading Bengaluru in IPL 2025 also. Faf du Plessis recently led his team St. Lucia Kings to victory in the Caribbean Premier League 2024 (CPL 2024) under his captaincy and made the team champion. In such a situation, now RCB can retain him and he can also be seen captaining.

Du Plessis's bat roared fiercely in CPL

Actually, considering the age of Du Plessis, it was being said that the RCB team could release him. However, considering the kind of form he is in at present, the Bengaluru team would like to retain him.

Du Plessis's bat has made a lot of noise in CPL 2024 and in this tournament, playing a total of 12 matches, he has scored 405 runs with an average of 36.82 and a strike rate of more than 145. During this period, he has scored 4 half-centuries with his bat.

Du Plessis also performed well in IPL 2024

The right-handed batsman may have retired from international cricket but he is currently in excellent form. Apart from this, he also played brilliantly during IPL 2024 and performed well.

While playing 15 matches in IPL 2024, the RCB captain scored 438 runs with a strike rate of around 162, while he scored 4 half-centuries with his bat. In such a situation, once again the franchise can show confidence in him and retain him in IPL 2025.
