RR vs DC: Top Three Players You Can Pick As Captain
Sanju Samson
The Indian Wicket Keeper batsman won the game for RR single-handedly smashing 82 of 52 balls at a strike rate of 157.69. The skipper of RR would like to continue his form in the same stadium making him a good choice for captain.
Mitchell Marsh
Mitchell Marsh could hardly make an impact from the bat last game but considering his high profile and the pitches he loves to bat on, Jaipur will be ideal conditions for him. In the last game, he started well scoring 20 of 12 but got dismissed early denying himself an opportunity of scoring big. Other than batting, he is a decent all-rounder bowling that takes key wickets making him a perfect choice for vice-captain.
Yashasvi Jaiswal
India‘s Young sensation Jaiswal was hitting each ball effortlessly just like always before he got out at 24 with a strike of 200. He would like to cash his incredible form in international cricket to IPL and would like to start it from the home games itself. His attacking prospects make him a suitable captaincy choice.

Trent Boult
Trent Boult is one of the finest new bowl bowlers in the world across formats. He displayed it in the first game-breaking
LSG ‘s batting order restricted them to a great start by taking their key wickets. He took two wickets in the powerplay and
LSG ‘s chase couldn’t take off. He is expected to do the same in today‘s match making him a perfect choice for vice-captain.
Tristan Stubbs
Tristan Stubbs is a hard-hitting batsman from South Africa. He failed to make it big for his Debut with Delhi but considering his potential to hit it from ball one makes him a tricky but decent vice-captain choice.
Delhi‘s management has backed Tristian since the auction to do the finishing job well for them.
Kuldeep Yadav
Amidst Their hard batting and high-profile top order, the valuable contribution of Kuldeep Yadav goes unnoticed. Kuldeep Yadav has been a consistent performer for DC since. He took 2 wickets in the last game giving just 24 runs and turning the momentum in DC‘s side. He will be a good pick for vice-captain as batsmen could lose their wicket while attacking him.
