The Bangalore team has a few options to choose from as their new captain. Faf du Plessis has the highest possibility of becoming the captain as expected by many pundits. He has a good understanding of the game and gets along well with the young players.
Dinesh Karthik also is a great option for the team as he has good experience in the leadership role. More recently, he guided Tamil Nadu, his domestic team, to Syed Mushtaq Ali trophy win in 2021. He too can be a good option for the team.
Meanwhile, some team officials had earlier stated that if they are unable to find a good option, they will ask Virat Kohli to return to his original position in the team.
