On the other hand, the Royal Challengers Bengaluru have been one of the most consistent IPL teams in recent seasons. In the last five years, they have made it to the playoffs on four occasions, with last season seeing them win six games in a row to make it to the top four.
However, not only have they not won the league in all this time, being one of only four current IPL teams to not have won the league, they haven’t even made it to the final since 2016.
Two of the most popular teams in the competition, KKR and RCB are coming into this season with new captains. The Knight Riders, despite winning the league in 2024, did not retain their title-winning captain Shreyas Iyer. Unlike other teams, who are looking towards the youth to find their new skipper, they have gone the other way and have made veteran-batter Ajinkya Rahane their leader, who is a former Indian skipper and is currently the captain of Mumbai in the domestic circuit.

As for the Royal Challengers, they let go of their captain Faf du Plessis, retaining only three players ahead of the IPL 2025 mega-auction. And now, rather than going back to the well and naming Virat Kohli as their captain, they have named Rajat Patidar as their captain. The explosive batter has recently done well as the captain of Madhya Pradesh in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.
