Teams are looking aggressively at the future. Recently, RCB named Rajat Patidar as the skipper. Here, we take a look at the list of three young India cricketers who could become a vice-captain in IPL 2025.
Grooming a captain is important in the IPL. This way, teams have a better chance of constructing balanced squads in every cycle of the tournament.
1) Abhishek Sharma
Abhishek Sharma already has experience as a skipper at the domestic level. It is now time for him to make the step at IPL. Pat Cummins is the captain of the side and as he ages, he becomes more vulnerable to injuries and availability in the IPL could become a concern. Anyways, an Indian skipper is always the best choice for a side. Therefore, Abhishek could be groomed for the role.
2) Yashasvi Jaiswal could become a vice-captain in IPL 2025
Yashasvi Jaiswal is one of the young India cricketers who could become a vice-captain in IPL 2025. He was retained for INR 18 Crores before the auctions. His relevance is high at Rajasthan Royals. It could also be a firm step for him to become the vice captain of the side, especially since many are looking at him as the future India captain.
3) Rinku Singh
It would not be a surprise if Rinku Singh gets announced as the skipper of IPL 2025. However, it might make sense for KKR to give the task to someone like Ajinkya Rahane or Venkatesh Iyer. Nevertheless, having retained him before IPL 2025 Mega Auctions, Rinku Singh will surely get a leadership role at KKR.
