The Indian Premier League (IPL) is a cricket event, particularly in India, when spectators and media attention are drawn in large numbers. The franchises are prepared to restructure the team while keeping the core of the team intact following the IPL 2025 Mega Auction. Because most teams must keep a set number of players and release the others, teams will have a larger player pool in this scenario.
The rumors are endless, but given the history of one such team, it seems inevitable that there will be a significant shake-up for the next campaign. According to speculations and reports, the Royal Challengers Bengaluru are reportedly trying to find a new captain to take over from the current skipper Faf du Plessis.
The mega auction only happens once every three or four years, therefore the RCB squad will have a great opportunity to pick a new captain and assemble a team around him for the forthcoming season. RCB is one such team that has failed to lift the IPL trophy multiple times even with a star-studded lineup, so this time around they are in for serious changes in order to have their first taste of a title.

Plus, Maxwell is regarded as a potential successor to the captaincy despite having no previous captaincy experience. That is, nevertheless, only going to occur if RCB is unable to sign a few key players in the upcoming mega auction.
#2 Ben Stokes
Stokes is reportedly keen on participating in this massive auction, despite not being a part of the 2024 IPL season. Given his in-depth knowledge of the game and his well-established leadership abilities, Stokes is a great choice to guide the RCB club to their maiden IPL championship. It will be extremely risky to pick Ben Stokes as captain given his injury worries and availability, but if his name appears in the auction pool, RCB will undoubtedly fall short given his potential.
#1 KL Rahul
As per several rumors, KL Rahul, the LSG captain, is not thrilled with the administration of the team and is thinking of leaving. Therefore, if this occurs, Rahul will undoubtedly be on the radar of the RCB, and given his history with the team, it is highly possible that he will join the team and be named captain. In the event that Rahul decides to leave LSG, RCB would undoubtedly be prepared to bid on him at the auction because of his well-known captaincy record in the IPL and domestic leagues.
